I bought this paint to paint a large mailbox.
I prepared the box by removing most of the old paint, wire brushed and sanded it and then cleaned it with mineral spirits. The paint did not cover good at all, you can see through it and the shades of the box and old white paint on the box also. It was total waste of my money.

Hm, that doesn't sound right! Please keep in mind that the appearance of Rust-Oleum Universal Spray can be affected by the surface condition and the number of coats applied. It is also essential to thoroughly shake the can before use and during application to ensure an even finish. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 5

Purchased 3 cans for a small job. Not very much paint in the can. Paint came out in splotches even though I continually shook the can during the job. Great color. But less inclined to purchase in the future.

Uh oh, Pat. That is not what we like to hear. Rust-Oleum Universal Paint and Primer in One covers 10-15 square feet per can. Certainly, it is important to shake the can thoroughly before use and intermittently during use. This will allow the heavier pigments to remain suspended and flow out smoothly. We certainly understand your frustration and we would like to try to make things right. Please call our product support team at (800) 481 - 4785. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 4

This is a beautiful color, if a bit transparent. Several coats are needed for full coverage. Excellent if you want a hint of color too.

For best application, Rust-Oleum Universal Mist Spray Paints should be applied with two or more coats a few minutes apart. Rather than one heavy coat. This will help with building up of the color.

New Color!
This spray paint color is great for fall and the cap does represent the finished product.
I painted a metal cart with one can. Looks great with the purple pansies

Working well so far....
I bought a wrought iron stand from Goodwill, to use on my patio, next to my grill, but it was gold. I used this paint to get a bronze or iron type of appearance, to match the grill. It worked very well, and I finished the job in no time. The spray was concentrated enough to be efficient, but not so concentrated as to run.
I bought about three different colors, including a sort of turquoise blue, to try to duplicate a copper look on a polymer table base which will eventually be part of a water feature, and two of the paints, all of them rustoleum, were at least a year or more old, and the ball inside still pinged around inside, so I blended them on the table base, and all worked well. The paints dry fast in the Texas heat, but it takes at least overnight to dry completely. It has rained since, and the weather here is otherwise hot and sunny, and although I can't say how it will do any longer than a few months, so far it seems to be holding up perfectly well.

Hard to control, required alot of coats
The trigger spray is not comfortable and very hard to control, i would rather stick to traditional.
Also it required alot coats for color to show up, i would probably had better result, priming first, even tough its (prime and paint in-one).
I was also a bit disappointed by coverage, seems to be on a low side.

perfect for the job
we bought this to use on a art piece we have for outside our home. This brought out new colors and smoothed the texture over perfectly

Its "see thru", not cover anything paint
I didnt like it, because I buy it to change color of metal table set and it didnt cover anything, its just add some sparkles \ shine... looks ugly and weird, because didnt match the old color.

this product is great
I used this product to paint the arms and legs of my out door chairs and I also painted the umbrella base. Depending on the material that you are painting the coverage varies. I painted over metal so I had to use more paint. But overall its a good product.
