Really like their products but had a problem with incompatibility. Used the Rust-oleum white primer, top coated with Wattyl Rust Kill top coat.… Read more
Caused wrinkling in the paint. Only happens rarely but now it’s back to sanding. It does pay to use the same brand bottom to top. I think it’s just about the solvents used in the cans, not the quality.
RustOleum 3.78L Sunset Decorative Concrete Coating – Very good coating for the bare concrete surface. I liked the finish even though it came a bit diff to the picture on the can, black and white minute… Read more
pebbles effect shown on the picture is a bit misleading. However, finish is pretty crisp and non-flaky. Comes in few colours.
I used the rustOleum special roller that is recommend. Coverage is 5.6m2 Per can not litre as on Bunnings website. It's better to get it machine mixed as it's a thick compound. Try to get all the cans required for the job from one batch as colour can be a slightly off in different batches.
Some suggested using a brush to achieve larger coverage but I feel roller has a better finish. For trims and edges you have to use brush anyway.
You have to be sure that there would be no rain in the next 48 hours.
Terrible – Tried to paint an electric guitar. Nozzle half blocked on second coat even though I cleaned it. Nozzle almost completely blocked on third coat. Half the can wasted. Don’t buy. Show details

Guaranteed” that was most frustrating. Rust-oleum said for “proper penetration” we should have used a clean and etch product - no refund. Don’t buy this product unless you are happy to spend more on the etch product and gamble in the result. Not a cheap experience and now we have to remove the two coats we put on and try again with another product.
Rust-Oleum Line Marking Paint – Just warning others: the line marking paint has a use-by date after which it is no longer works properly. For example I bought some old paint… Read more
(possibly old Masters stock) and it was no longer bright red but brown/dark burgundy and does not show up on a building site. However there we no mention of a use-by date on the cans and it is quite difficult to work out the manufacturing date from the batch number on the bottom of the can. I have found that recent product has a shelf life documented in their technical data sheet of 5 years. So just beware of buying rust-oleum line marking paint that it has been recently manufactured.
Purchased six of these cans to repaint our wood heater. The old paint was actually in very good condition for its age, but wanted to freshen it up.… Read more
Sanded back the old surface and cleaned meticulously with acetone until the surface was squeaky clean. After giving the heater three coats it looks far worse than the old surface did. The coverage is blotchy and uneven, with some sections seeming to hold more sheen than others. Contacted both Rustoleum Australia and the retailer but neither seemed that interested, and certainly did not offer a refund or a return of the unused cans. Would'n't recommend this product.
Switched to Zinsser undercoat and Dulux top coat. Problem solved.
