For use on metal fences, railings, doors and garage doors made of aluminum, galvanized/Galvalume®, copper, zinc, stainless—in residential, commercial, or industrial settings. Withstands direct weather, UV, and high humidity; ideal for restoration/maintenance. Apply direct-to-metal on sound, cleaned surfaces or over compatible DTM primers.

Coverage will vary with surface porosity; when spraying, expect 350–400 sq. ft. per gallon.

Apply with a high-quality nylon/polyester brush, 3/16" woven roller, paint pad, or spray equipment. Maintain a wet edge during application, as the product dries quickly. Rinse brushes with warm water during extended use. Two coats are recommended for maximum durability.

Spray Application:

Airless: Use a fine-finish tip (.015"–.019") at 1500–2000 psi.

Conventional/HVLP: No thinning required for airless spray. If needed, thin up to 5–10% (12 oz./355 mL per gallon) with clean water for conventional, HVLP, or brush applications.

At 70 F and 50% relative humidity: Touch – 1 Hour , Recoat – 2-4 hours.

Dry times may vary depending on air temperature, wind, and humidity.

All surfaces must be clean, dry, and free of dust, oil, grease, mildew, rust, loose paint, and other contaminants.

Aluminum: Clean with solvent and hand tools at minimum; for best results, blast clean. Prime the same day.

Galvanized Steel: Solvent clean, then pre-treat with an etching solution. Brush blast if passivated; remove rust and prime same day.

Galvalume: Clean thoroughly, repair damaged primer, and confirm compatibility of shop and field coatings.

Copper: Solvent clean and prime same day.

Zinc: Sand smooth, remove dust, and ensure compounds are dry before priming.

Stainless Steel: Sand or clean to open pores; treat mildew; fill, caulk, and sand smooth before painting.

Previously Painted: Allow 30 days cure (pH ≤10). For earlier coating, cure 7 days and prime with alkali-resistant primer.
