Rust-oleum 245484 Alkyd Enamel Paint Gloss Silver Gray

Product Description

The RUST-OLEUM 245484 is a gloss alkyd enamel paint formulated for both indoor and outdoor applications. It delivers a hard, durable finish on metal, wood, and other prepared surfaces. This paint covers 230 to 425 square feet per gallon and has a VOC content of 340 g/L. It is tack-free in 4 hours and fully cured in 8 hours, making it a practical choice for commercial maintenance crews, industrial painters, and facilities technicians who need reliable turnaround between coats. The 1,280 fl oz container size is suited for large-scale surface coating projects.

This alkyd enamel is suitable for interior and exterior applications across a wide range of environments. Its Silver Gray gloss finish is commonly used on equipment housings, structural steel, machinery, and general maintenance painting where a clean, reflective surface is required. The working temperature range of 32 degrees F to 100 degrees F makes it appropriate for most standard job-site conditions. Recoat time is 24 hours, which should be factored into project scheduling on multi-coat applications.

Compatibility

Designed as an alkyd enamel topcoat for use on prepared interior and exterior surfaces including metal, wood, and masonry where an oil-based gloss finish is specified. The manufacturer notes this product is not rated for direct-to-metal application without appropriate priming.

Installation Notes

Application should be performed by experienced painters or maintenance technicians familiar with alkyd-based coatings. Ensure the substrate is clean, dry, and properly primed before application. Adequate ventilation is required, particularly for indoor use, given the 340 g/L VOC content. Consult local and regional VOC regulations before applying in areas with strict air quality standards.
