Rust-oleum 245308 Alkyd Enamel Paint Gloss Almond 10 Gal

Product Description

The RUST-OLEUM 245308 is a high-solids alkyd enamel paint formulated for both interior and exterior applications. This product delivers a hard, gloss finish on metal, wood, and masonry surfaces. It applies direct to metal without a separate primer coat, making it a practical choice for maintenance and industrial touch-up work. Coverage ranges from 230 to 425 square feet per gallon depending on surface porosity and application method. VOC content is 340 grams per liter. This paint is handled and applied by maintenance painters, industrial contractors, and facilities technicians working on structural or equipment surfaces.

The 245308 is suited for use on structural steel, equipment housings, tanks, fabricated metal components, doors, and trim in both residential and commercial settings. The almond color and gloss finish make it appropriate for interior wall surfaces, machinery, and anywhere a durable, cleanable coating is required. It performs across a working temperature range of 32 degrees F to 100 degrees F, covering most field application conditions. The 10-gallon can size is sized for larger maintenance jobs or multi-surface projects.

Installation Notes

Application should be performed by qualified painters or maintenance technicians following safe coating practices. Surface must be clean, dry, and free of oil, rust, and loose scale before application. Do not apply when surface or ambient temperatures fall below 32 degrees F or exceed 100 degrees F, or when rain is expected within the dry time window. Observe all applicable VOC regulations and ventilation requirements for the project location, and use appropriate respirator protection when spraying or working in enclosed spaces.
