Rust-Oleum 249087 Painter's Touch 2X Ultra Cover Spray Paint, 12 oz, Matte Clear

This spray paint exceeded my expectations. I used it on a smooth plastic surface (holiday décor), and the finish came out perfectly even, bright, and completely smooth without streaks or blotches. The Apple Red color matches the listing exactly — rich, vibrant, and true red. The spray goes on in a fine, even mist with no dripping or splattering. The glossy finish looks clean and almost factory-made. It also dries quickly: the first coat was touch-dry in about 20 minutes, and the second coat dried even faster. The paint adheres very well, doesn’t stay tacky, and doesn’t rub off. I love that this is a Paint + Primer formula — it adhered to the plastic beautifully without a separate primer. If you need a reliable spray paint for plastic, décor, or crafts, this is an excellent choice.

I’m so impressed with this spray paint! I used it on some old furniture, and it came out looking completely new smooth, even, and vibrant. It was easy to apply and dried quickly without any drips or streaks. Definitely transformed my pieces and exceeded my expectations. I’ll be using this on all my DIY projects from now on!

This is great for protecting any decoupage, artwork, or anything you want a clear coat on. It's easy to shake and spray on. I highly recommend that you do it outside on a non-windy day. It covers well and makes your work look even better with the finishing touch. It's definitely worth the investment of your hard work to protect it. You can even use it on artificial flowers that are outside for graveside or wreaths. It helps repel the misty weather and does help hold flowers in place.

I use cases of Satin Canyon Black. This is the most cost effective way to buy it. Great paint, great cover, great sheen, easy to spray. My Favorite got to rattle can brand and color.

Works well

I needed to paint some sconces so I looked to Amazon and found this Rust-Oleum 2x spray paint in satin black. After masking, I put on a rubber glove remembering how past spray paints worked but I didn't need it with this can. There was zero spray accumulated anywhere around the top of the can. And the spray went out straight, not too spread out and without spatter. The coverage was very good and in the one spot I hit a little hard and made a drip, the drip actually dried up very well. I was very pleased with this spray paint. We let it dry for a few hours before putting the lights back up. They look great. Caution: Not a latex paint, use in an area that's well ventilated, like a garage with the door open.

Color: I love the oregano! It's slightly darker than sage, slightly brighter/less gray than olive. Paint: Shake REALLY well, press the button all the way down at all times, or you can wind up with texture from the paint and the color won't come out even throughout the use of the can. One trick I started to use was if there was an over-spray with dripping or bubbling, I QUICKLY used my finger to spread it out and it still dried nicely. Once I got the hang of this specific color and paint, it was much easier to use and get the result I was looking for. (For reference, I've used quite a few other colors from this company, but for some reason the oregano was a little harder to get right at first. Worth it though!) So far this is working well, but my outdoor furniture items haven't been exposed to rain or snow yet. I used with on a metal and glass table (the underside of the glass) with just dirt removal as prep, it went on nicely and dried/set with a lovely sheen that's not shiny-glossy. I also painted plastic risers for the table legs with no prep. So far it's adhering well to everything. For one of my other projects, I painted a wicker egg chair with a lot of prep, (scrub with deterrent and dry for a day, Rustolrum's gray spray primer then dry for another day before paint), this also looks great with a gentle sheen. I also previously painted a metal shed with this paint, that had more of a mixed result, but the cans had been sitting in my basement for 6 months and I may not have shaken them enough prior to use. That project came out botchy until I got the hang of using this paint, and a you can see in the photo, one door is still blotchy because I haven't gone back to it. If it doesn't hold up, I'll update the listing, but so far I'm really happy with the results after getting over the learning curve.

This stuff is great and easy to use! You just spray it where you want it and voila! I used it on an outdoor window ledge that my gardener chainsawed the paint off of. It looks brand new now.
