Dulux Metalshield Rust Defence

This review is based on ease of application not on how well the paint actually protects, only time will tell on the protection side. This is a relatively new product, it’s a water based metal protection paint I thought I would give a try due to it quick turnaround dry times, able to apply multiple coats same day. Well it definitely dries fast, to fast in fact, I’m a painter and decorator and know how to move quickly to get a good finish, but this dries so fast that by the time you put your brush back into the pot for more paint the stuff you already have on has started going off , so you’re next brush full is no longer going into wet paint and leaves major brush marks. So basically impossible to keep a wet edge on this product for a nice smooth finish, temperature was about 25C, I was in the shade and I was really moving trying to get it on a single face of guttering smoothly. If you like your paint all ropey then great, but this product needs some work by Dulux.
