PRODUCT APPLICATION
PAINTING CONDITIONS
Use outdoors or in a well ventilated area such as an open
garage. Use when temperature is between 50-90°F (10-
32°C) and humidity is below 65% to ensure proper drying.
Do not apply to surfaces that, when heated, exceed 200°F
(93°C) or galvanized metal. Avoid spraying in very windy
and dusty conditions. Cover surrounding area to protect
from spray mist.
PRIMING
A primer is not required or recommended.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Wash the surface with a commercial detergent, or other
suitable cleaning method. Rinse with fresh water and dry
with a clean cloth.
PRODUCT APPLICATION (cont.)
APPLICATION
Shake can vigorously for one minute after the mixing ball
begins to rattle. If mixing ball fails to rattle DO NOT STRIKE
CAN. Contact Rust-Oleum. Shake often during use. Hold
can 8-12" from surface and spray in a steady back-and-forth
motion, slightly overlapping each stroke. Keep the can the
same distance from the surface and in motion while
spraying. Apply 4 or more light coats to build desired
coating thickness, followed by one medium coat to achieve a
smooth final film. Allow the coating to dry slightly (about 5
minutes) between coats. More coats will result in a thicker
coating which is easier to remove when desired. Allow the
coating to cure for 24 hours before washing. Do not use
near open flame.
DRY & RECOAT
Dry and recoat times are based on 70°F (21°C) and 50%
relative humidity. Allow more time at cooler temperatures.
Dries to the touch in 20 minutes and can be handled in 1
hour. The film can be peeled off once the coating has fully
cured. Naphtha may assist in the removal of film in intricate
areas.
CLEAN-UP
When finished spraying, clear the spray valve by turning can
upside down and pushing the button for 5 seconds. Allow
wet paint to dry and once dry, peel away or clean up wet
paint with xylene or naphtha. Properly discard empty
container. Do not burn or place in home trash compactor.
CLOGGING
If the valve clogs, twist and pull off spray tip and rinse in a
solvent such as xylene or naphtha. Do not insert any object
into can valve opening.
REMOVAL
When desired, Peel Coat can be easily peeled off from the
surface to remove. No need to use a scraper or other such
tool that could mar the surface. Simply use the pads of your
fingertips, roll back the coating working from the edge,
inwards toward the center of the coated object. Once the
edge is lifted, grab the coating and begin to slowly peel back
the coating working towards the center of the object. For
best results, maintain a slow, even pull and don’t over
stretch the film.
It is recommended that Peel coat not remain on a surface for
more than 6 months.
