Rust-Oleum Tarmacoat - Fast Drying Acrylic Floor Paint
Rust-Oleum Tarmacoat is a versatile, rapid curing acrylic floor paint designed for a wide range of surfaces including asphalt, concrete, pavement, and bitumen. Its fast-drying formula ensures it is rain-proof and recoatable after just one hour, making it perfect for both short-term and long-term projects. The water-based formulation is safe to use, emits virtually no odour, and provides excellent resistance to U.V. and weathering. Available in a variety of colours, Tarmacoat offers the flexibility and durability needed for diverse applications.
Applications
- Asphalt and concrete surfaces.
- Pavements and bitumen substrates.
- Parking bays for short-term or intermittent use.
- Line marking for tennis courts and playgrounds.
Usage Instructions
Ensure the surface is clean, sound, and dry (slightly damp is acceptable). Tarmacoat can be applied to existing paint provided all poorly bonded material is removed and glossy surfaces are dulled using abrasive paper. For porous concrete surfaces, first prime with Primer 44HS or EpoxyShield Sealer 5220. For asphalt surfaces, apply a coat of Tarmacoat diluted with 20% water.
- Brush: Apply undiluted.
- Roller: Use a medium pile type roller. One coat is generally sufficient, although a second coat may be necessary for very porous or rough surfaces.
Safety and Limitations
Do not apply:
- In areas constantly under water.
- On garage floors.
- Externally if rain or frost is forecast or if the temperature is below 10ºC.
Always refer to the downloadable data sheet for more detailed information on product usage and safety measures.
Health and Safety

Questions
Question about the product
Danny Powlesland on 2021-08-04 16:35:26 | Question:
Would you recommend this for painting an exterior concrete base for a garden shed? |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Assuming the concrete is clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet this can be used. If you are looking for a surface applied damp proof membrane we would recommend 402 Damp Proof Coating. | |
Kerry on 2020-06-17 08:57:43 | Question:
Do you need to use a sealant after to increase the durability? |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
No sealant or topcoat is required after use of Tarmacoat. | |

Can I paint red tarmacoat over my black tarmac drive? Thank you Steve. |

I have small patio area 20ft by 10 ft roughly the yorkstone slabs surface is off almost. they have been down 20 years do you think if i could coated them with tarmac paint it would last ok? |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
We would recommend first priming with Rust-Oleum 5220 Epoxyshield Sealer assuming the surface will be porous. Then you could apply 2 coats of Rust-Oleum Tarmacoat. | |
Robert Gordon on 2018-02-24 20:52:48 | Question:
Hi I have a imprinted drive way and was wondering if this paint would be suitable to cover it I have took the last coat of sealer of with a pressure washer and am now down to bare concrete thanks |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Rust-Oleum Tarmacoat can be applied to exterior concrete surfaces but will not 'infill' or 'hide' the imprinted pattern the concrete has it will only colour it. | |
Jeff on 2017-11-01 09:12:44 | Question:
Can these colours be mixed to make different shades? |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
If you are asking two different colours of standard Tarmacoat can be mixed together to achieve a different colour, then yes that is possible. But the responsibility as to the actual colour achieved, and for any additional mixings to be consistent, is entirely with yourself. | |
Bob on 2016-11-25 08:51:25 | Question:
Is the anti slip aggregate ready mixed in or can extra be added and are two coats preferable |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Rust-Oleum Tarmacoat is a smooth coating so if you wish to produce a non-slip surface you would need to use one of the Rust-Oleum Non-Skid Additives which can either be mixed into the Tarmacoat or sprinkled into the freshly applied coating and overcoated once dry. | |
