Good productBy Paul from Boulder, CO on October 5, 2011 Good paint, FAA approved, dries glossy blackPros:Ready for second coat in 1hr, dries fully overnightCons:tar-like smell, use with good ventilationI would recommend this item to a friend.Time-Tested solution, but messy!By Phil from Oklahoma on April 26, 2011
I prepared the surfaces thoroughly, rusted areas neutralized and degreased completely. I have a feeling this stuff would stick anyway, but preparation is the most important step...
I taped off non-painted areas, and this is where I learned how messy this paint really is. It seeped under my 3M masking tape, which should have been the hi-dollar variety for auto painting applications, rather than the blue. Forget using the blue version of tape, or any cheap stuff. This just gets right under it.
This paint also runs and drips like hot syrup, getting everywhere. I was careful, but that first dip with the brush was a little unexpected and I got drops on things that weren't supposed to be even near the paint (like my pants.) So, a good drop cloth is essential.
The fumes were mild asphalt-type, and they persisted for a few hours.
The cure time is very long, a couple of days minimum in 60-deg temps. Any small drips/runs took even longer. The parts that were sitting on something had stuck down and glued to the surface. Bolt threads will need to be protected, but can fairly easily be cleaned if forgotten.
Once cured, the paint is tough and durable, and I can easily believe that it is acid-proof.
You will need at LEAST two coats, because they go on a little thin. Don't over brush, and don't load the brush up too much. Foam brushes worked OK, or disposable type bristles. You will NOT be reusing the brushes!
Pros:Effective. Very effective. Exactly as described on the label. Tough coating with multiple coats if applied as directed.Cons:Messy, runny. Not forgiving if you don't have proper drop cloth coverage!I would recommend this item to a friend.Hard to findBy Bill from Erie,Pa. on February 14, 2011Pros:Acid proof not acid resistant.Cons:So far, nothing.I would recommend this item to a friend.Good application - dries fastBy Tom from Tyler Texas on November 28, 2010
