Product Information
Full details
Pro-Kleen Direct to Rust Metal Paint is a versatile 3-in-1 solution designed for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners looking to restore rusted or weathered surfaces on metal, wood, and furniture. By combining a primer, undercoat, and topcoat into a single black satin application, it simplifies projects and provides durable protection against corrosion. While it excels at providing a professional, UV-resistant finish, users must ensure the surface is properly prepped and free of loose debris for the best adhesion.

FAQs
Can this be used on wood?

Do I need a separate primer?

How many coats should I apply?
For optimal protection and a professional finish, apply 2 to 3 thin, even coats.
Is it suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, it is UV and colour fade resistant, making it perfect for garden furniture and outdoor metalwork.
Does it work on new, non-rusted metal?

How far away should I hold the spray can?
Hold the can at a distance of 15 to 25 cm from the surface for even coverage.
Troubleshooting
The paint is running or sagging during application
You are likely holding the can too close or moving it too slowly. Increase the distance to 25 cm and use quicker, sweeping motions.
The finish is peeling or flaking off
This usually indicates the surface was not properly cleaned. Ensure all loose rust, grease, or dirt is removed before re-application.
Nozzle is clogged or paint is sputtering
Remove the nozzle and soak it in paint thinner, or turn the can upside down and spray until clear to remove build-up.
