Hammercote Smooth Satin Finish FAQ's
How should I prepare metal before painting?
Any loose and flaking paint should be removed and all surfaces should be cleaned, and degreased with Coo-Var Universal Degreaser. Any rust should be removed, and surfaces should be abraded to make sure an adequate ‘key’ is produced. If the surface is galvonised, mordant solution should be used to etch the surface prior to painting.
Remove any existing rust using a mechanical sander or a wire brush.
Do I need to use a primer before painting with Hammercote?
A primer is not nessacary with Coo-Var Hammercote products as it acts as a primer and a topcoat together. However if you want the added protection you can use Coo-Var All Metals Primer. All metal must be prepared correctly.
How many coats of paint are necessary?
Typically, two coats of paint are recommended for optimal coverage and durability.

Can you paint rusty metal
Yes, you can paint rusty metal, but proper preparation is essential. We recommend removing any loose rust and sanding the surface.
