Rust-oleum 238748 Beyond Acrylic Enamel 1 Gallon White Gloss

Product Description

The RUST-OLEUM 238748 is a water-based acrylic enamel coating from the Beyond Sierra Performance line, formulated for professional-grade results with low VOCs, low HAPs, and low solvent odor. It delivers a smooth, gloss finish and is designed for use on a wide range of primed or painted surfaces including metal, concrete, masonry, wood, drywall, and tile. Suitable for both interior and exterior applications, this single-component system dries in 30 minutes, making it a practical choice for commercial and institutional settings. Facilities managers, painters, and coating contractors typically specify this product where fume sensitivity or regulatory compliance is a concern.

The 238748 is well suited for schools, cafeterias, hospitals, food-service environments, and other occupied spaces where low-odor coatings are required. Its moisture-resistant film is easy to clean and sanitize, making it appropriate for high-traffic or washdown areas. The formula meets USDA requirements for incidental food contact, extending its use to food-processing and food-handling facilities. It is available in a 1-gallon container and also in a 5-gallon size for larger jobs.
