Can other Rust Oleum paint colors be used with this kit, or is this paint special?

I wouldnt use it at all. We used it last year and already there is a ton of chips and large peices of the paint missing. What a waste of time and money. Wish it it would have worked!!

Regarding bizzy26's situation, did you follow the directions strictly and to the letter? Letting each coat dry as instructed is really important. I haven't seen any problems. I did three bathroom cabinets and kitchen cabinets, as well as a desk, and they all look beautiful still.

I agree with bizzy26. I have used Gianni system as well and prefer it's ease of use and durability.

The kit includes the paint to be used. They offer a number of colors according to their website, although I only seem to remember my local store carrying a few colors. If you wanted a specific color It may be possible to purchase the kit with white paint & have it tinted at the store.

No, you have to use the kit. The deglosser and the other substances that come with it are chemicallyformulated to work together. There are lots of nice colors you can select from.

It comes with 3 different colors, it is pretty thick paint, but you could probably use about any kind that is not too thin as it will spread very easily. Make sure you keep the squeeze bottles that some with it to refill.

Yes. Just make sure that you do not polish the metal. Wrie brush it or a coarse sand paper to take off the surface rust. You will need 2 coats. Pour the first one down and it will appear dull. The second coat will look the color you need. Make sure to wear the gloves and to put something down where you will be painting. This paint will leave it's mark. Good luck.

you can use any paint. but it suggests gun metal, grey, green, natural wood, olive drab, brass, tan, and yellow. I would also recomend some yellow and blue.

I think it may be a bit thick for plastic and won't work. You are probably much better off with a specialty spray like Rustoleum plastic or Kylon Fusion. Those are made for plastic specifically. Also, just being a bit handy, I would rough up the Nerf gun with some fine sandpaper before spraying this way you have a better surface to stick to. Here's a link to the plastic paint: http://www.amazon.com/Rust-Oleum-211338-Paint-Plastic-12-Ounce/dp/B0002YPHFC/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1374670105&sr=1-1&keywords=plastic+paint

Suggest you contact Rust-Oleum for technical questions. However, I would personally use the product if the fiber glass top has already been primed and painted with automotive paint.

I wouldn't know an official answer since I just purchased this item over a year ago. I would find a nut that fits and find metallic paint and get as close to the color as you can.

this is very unusual! normally this stuff turns black in a very short time over all surfaces,painted or rusty. i've been using this stuff for years and i highly recommend putting down some rustoleum metal primer over all treated surfaces,no matter what the label says about not needing any primer. did you shake the container enough,i wonder?

I think you have to use Rust-Oleum brand cans as the spray head is designed to fit in the cart. The good news is there is virtually no wasted paint. We sprayed a grid and used 20-25 cans. They were completely empty.

This one looks as pictured and is ready to go, but if you want a difference color, you can repaint it. Hobby paint will spray much finer and thinner, and will likely weigh less, but doubt it will change performance much.

This is a primer not paint, top side/above the water line marine paint is also available from rustoleum/amazon. Primer label does not specify ingredients and does not mention zinc chromate but does provide directions for use on aluminum. It is for above the water line use but appears so far to have a high tolerance for water. I used two coats of this primer on chrome that I discolored mis-using rust out and then coated it with two coats of grey rustoleum topside/marine paint. I tried several other products including epoxy to no avail but so far this is working.

Looks like you can, we used sand paper to get rid of rust flakes and applied this on top.. Everything is like blacked paint and stayed like that till now.. If there is something developing inside surface we wiild not know but looks like that black layer itself is water resistant and shut down the rust..

No paint touch up kit was included.Any black flat paint would work - something like rust - o - leum might be best.

Yes. Up to 3 ounces of color can be added. Go to a paint store and have them treat it as a tint base.

I only use other brands of color with this. The color that comes with this kit didnt work for me. I tryed a few times but that could just be me. I really like the kit. I just purchased polish elsewhere.

My suggestion would be to sand off any rust first. If its a large are then I would go Sherwin Williams for the primer and go with their recommendation for the metal primer. If its a small area then rustoleum should be fine. I would plan to apply 3 coats of Kool Seal. If you do go to the paint store then I would take the can of Kool seal with you to shake it. Its thick.
