A great choice for resisting the damaging effects of repeated exposure to the elements, Krylon® Rust Tough® with Anti-Rust Technology™ (krylon.com) spray paint applies directly to metal surfaces for maximum protection against rust—no priming necessary. Rust Tough is a new and improved formula that provides 40% stronger protection against corrosion as compared to its predecessor Rust Protector™ spray paint, notes a press release from the company. Available in both aerosol and brush-on offerings, homeowners can refresh outdoor furniture and décor while adding a layer of protection against rust.

“Rain and UV exposure is hard on most materials and even tougher on ones like metal,” said Melinda Childress, Krylon Product Manager. “Krylon’s Rust Tough protects metal by providing 40% stronger corrosion fighting protection for aluminum, steel and other metal surfaces. It also resists fading, keeping outdoor projects looking great.”

“As home improvement season is upon us, we want to give homeowners a solution to help extend the life of much-loved furniture pieces and keep outdoor living spaces beautiful year after year,” continued Melinda Childress. “Krylon Rust Tough makes it easy to tackle all outdoor updates on to-do lists like refreshing metal mailboxes, updating aluminum patio furniture, restoring outdoor light fixtures, reviving steel address plaques and more.”

The new Rust Tough is convenient and simple to use with no sanding or priming required and dries in as little as 30 minutes. It features a spray-any-way comfort tip, is available in a variety of finishes, ranging from flat to high-gloss, and has a wide selection of rich colors, great for use on projects in the home. For larger projects, Rust Tough is also available in a VOC-compliant brush-on option with an array of enamels, primers and tintable enamels.
