Question 1

Can you spray the product in the quart can?  what thinners should you use? i have hvlp, a gravity feed and an airbrush to work with.

Accepted Answer

The label says to thin with xylol.  At a ratio of 1.5 to 2 parts per 8 for spraying.  So, that is 6 to 8-ounces per quart.

Question 3

Hi, i was thnking of usising this to paint on the wwalls here,but will it cover/work good -over latex?   jim

Accepted Answer

No reason why it shouldn't, as long as the existing latex is free of moisture, dust, grease, or other things that would prevent the new paint from sticking and as long as the existing latex paint is well adhered to the surface. I'll caution you about using metallic paint on walls in general, though. First, it's oil based and gives off very strong fumes, so ventilate, ventilate, ventilate. These fumes are very hazardous to your health. Second, if you paint all the walls of a room with a metallic paint, the light will bounce from wall to wall, changing the look from metallic gold to brown and every brush or roller stroke will show. I have used metallic gold and metallic silver paints as the base coat for decorative paints that were then sponged or stamped over them, leaving just some of the metallic showing through as you'd get with a foil wallpaper. The effect is great. It will take about a month after applying the latex over the metallic for it to thoroughly adhere. Until then, be careful not to scratch it as it will peel pretty easily.

Question 4

What exactly is the best paint to use to paint a rusty metal gate for a fence?  Is this the right paint to use for metal?

Accepted Answer

This is amazing paint.  Clean your gate first...brush and sticky cloth to get off all the dirt and dust.  You don't have to remove rust, just the loose stuff.  Make sure it is dry before you paint.  Then paint right over the remaining rust.   It really works.
