Usage of Rust-Oleum Specialty Appliance Epoxy

Using Rust-Oleum Specialty Appliance Epoxy is straightforward. Follow these steps for optimal results:

1. Prepare the area by covering the surrounding surfaces to protect them from overspray.
2. Shake the can vigorously for one minute to ensure proper mixing of the epoxy.
3. Hold the can in an upright position and spray the epoxy onto the surface from a distance of 15 to 25 cm. Use a constant back and forth motion, overlapping each spray pass.
4. Apply two to three light coats, allowing a few minutes of drying time between each coat. This helps to avoid color clumping and bleeding.
5. Once the final coat is applied, allow the epoxy to dry completely according to the manufacturer’s instructions before subjecting the surface to any stress or heavy use.
