Hammerite Rust Cap Paints **Now available at the Tool Box** HAMMERITE® RUST CAP® HAMMERED ENAMEL FINISH is a self-priming, rust preventive coating designed to provide long-lasting metal protection. It provides a decorative finish that resists corrosion and the damaging effects from moisture and severe weather. Formulated for interior and exterior use. Glassguard® Protection As the coating dries, microscopic heat-hardened glass flakes interlock with special resins forming a super-tough barrier that seals out moisture to prevent rusting. Where to Use For use on metal substrates. Can be applied directly over firm, rusty surfaces. For previously painted surfaces, apply HAMMERITE® RUST CAP® HAMMERED ENAMEL FINISH to a small area first to check adhesion and test for lifting or cracking.
