• How many coats, and how long between them? Two coats are recommended; it is touch dry in about 2 hours and can be recoated after 4, so both coats fit comfortably into one day.
• What preparation does it need? Loose and flaking rust should be wire-brushed off and the surface cleaned of dirt and grease and left dry before painting. Firm rust can be painted straight over.
