Rust-Oleum 7500 Alkythane is a single pack high performance, anti-corrosion topcoat for metal. Ideal for low temperatures (as low as 5°C) it offers the same protection in less layers than other alkyd-systems.
Applied on old intact coatings or well primed surfaces, Rust-Oleum 7500 Alkythane offers a long-lasting industrial-duty protection. For metal constructions in very aggressive environments we advise to use an additional coat of Rust-Oleum Primer or Rust-Oleum 7500 Alkythane.

Would this paint work on glavanised roller shutters? Would wire brush and sand them down, and use t wash and apply metal primer? Thanks
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Assuming the galvanised shutters have been t washed, they are clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet we can recommend that they are primed first with Rust-Oleum 569/580 QD Metal Primer prior to application of Rust-Oleum 7500 Alkythane.
Please note that any paint applied will wear on the joints and where the shutters roll around the drum.
Alrernatively if t-washing is not possible, the galvanised doors are weathered, clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet you could prime them with Rust-Oleum 3202 Galvinoleum Primer followed by Rust-Oleum 7500 Alkythane.
This is available mixed to many RAL, NCS or BS colours in a satin or gloss finish.

Question:
Rust-Oleum 7500 Alkythane Can this be used with a sprayer? If so would it need to be thinned?
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Yes the product can be applied by brush, roller or spray.
Which is more hard wearing, CombiColor or Alkythane? Any other differences to consider? I'm looking at hard wearing paint for a narrowboat where ropes will slide along the roof edge, not to mention scrapes when mooring, etc. Thanks
When applying rust oleum 7500 over an existing unidentified coating, do I need a primer. the existing surface is sound but has been hand painted a long time ago and will need abrading in places to remove runs.
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
The data sheet states the following preparation;
Remove oil, grease and all other contamination by alkaline or high pressure (steam) cleaning in combination with appropriate detergents. Remove rust scale, loose mill scale, loose rust and loose coatings by scraping and wire brushing to St 2/3 (ISO 8501-1 : 1988), blast cleaning to Sa 2½ (ISO 8501-1 : 1988) or sanding, followed by priming with the recommended Rust-Oleum Primers. Sand previous coatings in good condition to provide a key for adhesion and check compatibility. The surface must be clean and dry during application.

Question:
Can you provide pan-tone reference numbers for your paint colours? Digital display resolutions between different devices won't provide an accurate representation of the actual product. I can see about 6 different greys that all display the same. Thanks Davey
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
You are correct that colours can vary screen to screen due to resolution settings and monitor quality. We pressume you have a physical Pantone colour chart which is why you want to go by these references but unfortunately RAL and BS colours do not directly corrolate with Pantone shades. We can produce Rust-Oleum 7500 Alkythane in nearly any RAL, BS, NCS, and many other paint colour ranges so we would suggest posting you a colour chart if you can provide an address to our sales team.
