Hammerite Direct To Rust Metal Paint – Hammered Black – 2.5 Litre (5084795)

Description

Genuine Hammerite · Part no. 5084795

Safety: Warning. Flammable liquid and vapour. May cause drowsiness or dizziness. Read the label before use.

Hammerite Direct To Rust in hammered black, in a 2.5 litre tin. It is a metal paint that goes on over rusty, bare or painted steel without a separate primer, and the dimpled black finish suits trailer chassis, wrought iron gates and old machinery where the metal is far from perfect.

Good to know

• How do I get an even hammered pattern? A hammered finish forms its pattern as the paint flows out, so it should be applied generously and not brushed out thin. Finish each area in one go rather than going back over half-dry paint.
• What size of job is the 2.5 litre tin for? It is the middle size, for medium jobs such as a trailer chassis, a pair of wrought iron gates or a run of railings, where a small tin would run out part way and leave you matching a second one.
• What do I do with the rust first? Loose and flaking rust should be wire-brushed off and the surface cleaned of dirt and grease and left dry before painting. Firm, tight rust can stay, because this paint is made to go straight onto it.
