    Default Rust Oleum

    anybody have any firsthand experience with this product?
    I want to use it to paint the capping on my 109..
    says it works best over galvy surfaces.. wonder how it would do on plain old painted capping?

    I have used spray cans and brush on. I think the brush on is a much better product...stuff i sprayed looked like crap within a year. Stuff i brushed still looks great.

    Odd,
    Home Depot out here has it, maybe try Lowes (or any similar home store) it's a pretty established brand.

    Well Home Depot has it here in VA. I would try Lowes or a local paint store.

    I used the spray stuff about five years ago to do some touch-ups on the capping. It is all in the preparations sand lightly to remove the rust - clean with acetone - dry -paint. I got mine at a store called Orchard Supply in CA. Good luck with your project.

    Well seems the staff at home depot A was either uninformed, lazy, or both..
    On a whim and thanks to the posts above I checked out another one close by and they had quite the selection...
    Picked up 2 cans of the stuff...
    Going to play with it a bit, but plan on doing the capping and other odds and ends with it...

    Though occasionally they prove me wrong I don't see this as being much different than many Home Depots.

    I thought Walmart had an exclusive on them, but I guess I'm wrong.
