first. For
repainting a painted door, remove any loose paint and rust
with sandpaper. Lightly sand glossy surfaces. Clean surface
with soap and water, rinse and let dry. Paint a small test
area in the corner.
WARNING! If you scrape, sand or remove old paint from any
surface, you may release lead paint dust. LEAD IS TOXIC.
EXPOSURE TO LEAD DUST CAN CAUSE SERIOUS
ILLNESS, SUCH AS BRAIN DAMAGE; ESPECIALLY IN
CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD ALSO AVOID
EXPOSURE. Wear a NIOSH approved respirator to control
lead exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA vacuum and
a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to protect yourself
and your family by contacting the National Lead Information
Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to www.epa.gov/lead.
PRODUCT APPLICATION (cont.)
PAINTING CONDITIONS
Do not apply to surfaces that will exceed 200ºF (93ºC). Use
when the temperature is between 50°F (10°C) and 90°F
(32°C) and humidity is below 75% to ensure proper drying.
For best results, do not apply in direct sunlight and avoid
applying in high temperatures.
PROTECT FROM
FREEZING
APPLICATION
Before using, stir thoroughly to ensure any settled pigment is
re-dispersed. Thinning should not be necessary. If thinning
is desired, use up to 5% of water. Recommend application
with a 6-1/2" shed resistant roller with a 3/8" nap or a
premium quality 2” or 2-1/2” angled sash, 100% nylon or
nylon/polyester blend brush. Depending on desired final
appearance, a high-density foam roller can also be used. For
best results, use the roller to paint the entire door or paint
the recessed edges of raised panels and then use the roller
for the remaining flat surfaces.
One coat may be enough to fully cover both sides of the
door. For new and existing doors, we recommend painting
the door off the frame to allow the paint to dry completely
before hanging. If painting a hanging door, do not close the
door until the paint is fully dry to prevent it from sticking to
the door frame. Two coats may be required to develop full
color and uniformity.
DRY & RECOAT TIMES
Dry and recoat times are based on 70°F (21°C) and 50%
relative humidity. Allow more time at cooler temperatures
and higher humidity. Dries to touch in 45 minutes, to handle
in 4-6 hours, and can be recoated within 1 hour and is fully
dry in 6 hours.
CLEAN-UP
Clean brush and other tools with soap and water.
COVERAGE
One quart of Rust-Oleum Door & Trim Paint will cover 2
coats on each side of the door.
