Rust protecting paint for all bare, rusted, or old painted ferrous metals and non-ferrous metals after appropriate pre-treatment, such as garden fences, garden furniture, stair and balcony railings, window grilles, lamps, bicycles, trellis, and windows. Coloured paints are also suitable for radiators. Hammerite lacquers are generally not suitable for painting motor vehicles, tempered surfaces (such as barbecues, oven pipes, brake calipers, engines, exhaust systems), surfaces subject to high mechanical stress (such as floors, lifting platforms, car underbodies), powder-coated objects, or components with permanent underwater contact (such as swimming pool ladders, in the boat area, baskets for dishwashers, aquariums).
