Rust-oleum 7290402 Dtm Alkyd Enamel Paint 1 Gal White

Product Description

The RUST-OLEUM 7290402 is a 1-gallon, white, semi-gloss direct-to-metal (DTM) alkyd enamel from the 7400 System line, formulated at 450 VOC for use in moderate to slightly severe industrial environments. This coating applies directly to metal substrates without a separate primer coat when conditions allow, delivering a hard, durable finish that resists rust, corrosion, chipping, fading, and weathering. It dries tack-free in 2 to 4 hours and is backed by a two-year rust-proof guarantee. Industrial painters, maintenance contractors, and facility maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this product.

The 7290402 is suited for structural steel, equipment housings, piping, ductwork, and other ferrous metal surfaces in light industrial and commercial facility environments. Its high-solids alkyd formula provides one-coat coverage in many applications. The coating meets USDA requirements for incidental food contact and is accepted for use in federally registered Canadian food processing facilities, making it appropriate for food and beverage plant maintenance work where incidental contact compliance is required.

Key Features

• Direct-to-metal formula — bonds to prepared metal without a dedicated primer coat in many applications
• Tack-free dry time of 2 to 4 hours for faster return to service
• Resists chipping, fading, and weathering for long-term exterior and interior durability
• Protects against mild chemical exposure in moderate to slightly severe industrial environments
• Meets USDA incidental food contact requirements; accepted for federally registered Canadian food facilities

Compatibility

Designed for use over prepared bare metal and compatible with 7400 System Heavy Duty Rust Inhibitive Primers, 7400 System Fast Recoat Primer, and 7400 System Red Damp Proof Primer for a complete system approach. Best results are achieved when used over a 7400 System primer.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical — remove all loose rust, mill scale, oil, and moisture before application. Apply using brush, roller, or spray equipment appropriate for alkyd enamels. Ensure adequate ventilation in enclosed spaces and comply with local VOC regulations and applicable facility safety codes before beginning work. Allow full cure before returning surfaces to service or applying a topcoat.
