Rust-oleum 255614 CV740 Dtm Alkyd Enamel 1 Gal White Gloss

Product Description

The RUST-OLEUM 255614 is a ready-to-use, direct-to-metal (DTM) alkyd enamel formulated for commercial coating applications. This gallon-sized, white gloss finish delivers excellent coverage and hide on bare or previously painted metal surfaces without requiring a separate primer step. The formula meets 100 VOC compliance requirements and is accepted for use in federally registered Canadian food facilities, making it suitable for regulated environments. It applies by brush, roller, or spray, and resists rust, chipping, mild chemical fumes, light abrasion, and general weathering. Licensed painting contractors and commercial maintenance crews are the primary installers.

The 255614 is intended for everyday commercial use on metal trim, structural steel, handrails, cabinets, and similar metal substrates. The high-gloss alkyd finish provides an easy-to-clean surface well suited to facilities that require regular washdowns or that see frequent incidental contact. It meets USDA requirements for incidental food contact, expanding its suitability to food processing and food service environments. For maximum adhesion and performance, Rust-Oleum recommends starting with the CV740 System Primer before applying this topcoat.
