I got a chance to wire brush all the loose paint rust etc.. on a car trailer.. Went to Ace wanted Rustoleumn ... They only had ACE brand paint Salesman says its the same.. Put the first coat on and it seems transparent . Anyone use this stuff with good results and how "many " coats are needed ... ACE sales man did not help with a call I made after the sell..Txs using the Allis Chambers Orange
Is the marble rattling like it should? Shake,shake,shake. Then take it back and bitch slap him for selling you crap. Bail out, rinse,repeat.
Sorry I got a Gallon of paint for the trailor.. So far one good coat on can see through it tommorrow secound coat..? hopefully big improvement..
hey guys i know i am new here but i am also the manager of an ace hardware in northern cal. he may have sold you the wroung base what is the 6 numbers on the botom of the can? did he have to mix the color? i have used ace paint on many of my project including a tear drop trailer, frame on my rock crawler, and stands for tools i have built and have never had problems with it. the only thing i can say is bad about the ace rust stop is that it takes time to dry.
With apologies to roversam, I have used that paint and it is like water compared to Rustoleum. Let's be honest here, Rustoleum is the standard and anything else is a compromise. I say sand it off and start over.
I just found this thread and I just finished painting my frame with this ace rust stop. Covers well and was not like water,it was kind of thick. I hope this stuff is durable.I got the same spiel from the ace guy when they did not have the semi gloss in Rustoleum. Three coats will take a while to dry. Do you think I can put some Rustoleum over this stuff it`s an alkyd enamel.Pete
