Hi there, I have just sprayed my steel flyscreen door with Dulux metalshield flat black, I’m now thinking it would look better with a shine. Can you tell me if I can go over it with a dulux gloss black?

Hi,
I have been applying Metalshield to my powdered coated door frames that are about 16yrs old. Some of the powder coating has come off so I have craped and sanded the back extensively. I originally applied Metalshield Etch Primer to the bare metal areas and then your Weathersheild semi gloss as advised by one of your shops. The finish was very dull so I went back to them and they recommended I use the Metalshield gloss. I have done this using both a brush and roller trying to get a smooth finish with out any luck. Do you know how I can get a better finish to the final coat.

Regards
Brett

Can Metalsheild epoxy enamel be used successfully on timber outdoor furniture?

Can Dulux Metalsheild be cut and polished

i have used the Spray pack (obtained from bunnings) Dulux Metalshield Epoxy etch primer and top coated with Dulux epoxy both Saturn and gloss,
the first part of my bare metal (steel) project was painted about 4 weeks ago and the second part prepared and painted this week but both have resulted in the topcoat staying soft and very easily scratches with my finger nail .
about a weeks work has gone in to the preparation before painting and ambient temperature was about 20 degs during the actual painting process .
I choose this paint due to a couple of factors
1/ Dulux brand.
2/ epoxy enamel.
3/ Excellent durability ?
4/ industrial strength .

I have had the same issue as a few other people have mentioned. I am using the 4 litre tins and a spray gun to paint a boat. I have fully prepped the surface and cleaned it thoroughly using was wax and grease removed. Then fully coated with etch primer and then used the vivid white high gloss epoxy enamel for the top coats. Looks so good when put on fresh but 48 hrs into curing the paint does not look high gloss and it feels chalky. There is no powder coming off on hands when touched but it def8natley feels and looks chalky. How do I prevent this or Would putting a clear coat over the top be best option

Can you advise if PREMIUM DLX METALSHIELD 4L INDUSTRIAL ALUMINIUM would be the best product for spot treating a roof with rust spots in areas? Also do you recommend a rust converter that should be used first?

I purchased 2 x 4 litres of metal shield in February 2022 for use on pool fence and house gutters. Two years later the paint has discolored and become chalky. Have contacted Help & Advice Team and was advised that this is expected after two years. I was also told I have used the correct product? Has anyone experience this situation using Dulux metalshield ? I am wondering if the marketing for Dulux paint exceeded the quality of their paints?
