Rust-oleum 412402 Dtm Alkyd Enamel Paint 1 Gal Black Flat

Product Description

The RUST-OLEUM 412402 is a direct-to-metal (DTM) alkyd enamel coating formulated for industrial and commercial applications requiring long-term corrosion protection. This 1-gallon unit delivers a flat black finish with high-solids coverage, meaning fewer coats are needed to achieve full hide. The formula is rated at 450 VOC and meets USDA requirements for incidental food contact, making it suitable for facilities with food-safety compliance requirements. Licensed painters, industrial maintenance crews, and facility technicians apply this coating in environments ranging from moderate to slightly severe industrial exposure. It dries tack-free in 2 to 4 hours.

The 412402 is intended for direct application to metal substrates without a separate primer coat, though performance is maximized when used over compatible 7400 System primers. Typical applications include structural steel, equipment housings, support frames, piping, and other ferrous metal surfaces in industrial and commercial facilities. The coating resists chipping, fading, and weathering, and is accepted for use in federally registered Canadian food facilities, broadening its use in regulated environments. It is available in gallon and five-gallon container sizes to suit small touch-up work through large-scale maintenance projects.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical before application — remove loose rust, mill scale, grease, and contaminants per the manufacturer guidelines. Apply in accordance with local VOC regulations, which may vary by region; confirm compliance before use. Ensure adequate ventilation when applying in enclosed or semi-enclosed spaces. Allow full cure time before exposing the coated surface to chemicals or mechanical contact.
