Krylon K01978008 Brush-on Paint 1 Gal Old Kubota Orange

Product Description

The KRYLON K01978008 is a high-gloss, oil-based brush-on paint formulated for direct-to-metal applications in outdoor environments. Packaged in a 1-gallon can, it delivers a durable gloss finish in Old Kubota Orange — a match commonly used for equipment touch-up and restoration work. Coverage ranges from 50 to 200 square feet per gallon depending on surface porosity and application method. Cleanup requires mineral spirits. The paint is suitable for both wood and metal substrates, making it a versatile option for maintenance and restoration tasks on outdoor machinery and structures.

This paint is intended for outdoor use on metal and wood surfaces, particularly in equipment maintenance and restoration applications where color-match accuracy to factory finishes matters. Its direct-to-metal formulation allows application without a separate primer on clean, properly prepared metal surfaces. Minimum and maximum recommended application temperatures are 55 degrees F and 75 degrees F, respectively. A fully cured dry time of 3 hours makes it practical for scheduled maintenance windows.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical for adhesion — remove rust, loose paint, grease, and contaminants before application. Apply only when ambient and surface temperatures are between 55 degrees F and 75 degrees F to ensure proper film formation. Use appropriate solvent-resistant brushes and ensure adequate ventilation when working with oil-based coatings. Dispose of mineral spirits and paint waste in accordance with local regulations.
