Rust-oleum 261957 Dtm Alkyd Enamel 1 Gal Dunes Tan Gloss

Product Description

The RUST-OLEUM 261957 is a ready-to-use, direct-to-metal (DTM) alkyd enamel coating formulated for commercial applications. Part of the CV740 System 100 VOC line, this gallon-size product delivers a high-gloss finish in Dunes Tan while meeting 100 VOC compliance standards. It requires no measuring or mixing and can be applied by brush, roller, or sprayer. The coating bonds directly to metal substrates without a separate primer step, making it a practical choice for facilities maintenance crews, commercial painters, and industrial coating contractors. Weighing 9.09 pounds per unit, it is sized for single-job or multi-surface use on common commercial structures.

This coating is intended for everyday commercial use on metal trim, structural steel, handrails, cabinets, and similar ferrous and non-ferrous metal surfaces. It is well-suited for interior and exterior commercial environments where rust resistance, chemical fume resistance, and light abrasion resistance are required. The formula meets USDA requirements for incidental food contact and is accepted for use in federally registered Canadian food facilities, making it appropriate for food processing plants, commercial kitchens, and regulated facilities alongside standard industrial settings.
