Why is Rust Bullet DuraGrade Better Than Traditional Epoxy Paint?

Rust Bullet is a one-part multiple coat process. This means there is no messy precise mixing ratios. Rust Bullet is fully cured at around 72 hours after the last coat is applied. Epoxy coatings generally take 7-10 days to fully cure, some even require force curing. Additionally, Rust Bullet can cure at temperatures as low as 32°F, which is advantageous during the winter months. Epoxy coatings require temperatures above 50°F.

The preparation required to use Rust Bullet is minimal as opposed to an epoxy coating. With an epoxy, the ph must be neutral, and the pores of the concrete must be opened, therefore, acid etching and grinding of the floor is required. This is definitely not the case with Rust Bullet. In most cases, you simply remove contaminates from the surface by dry cleaning methods such as sweeping, using an air hose or even a leaf blower, then apply.

Breaches in an epoxy coating are labor intensive and will involve a large area outside the breach to be included in the repair. Rust Bullet rarely experiences a breach, but when they do occur, are easily repaired with simple scuffing and application of additional coat(s) of Rust Bullet.

As this was a DIY project, I was looking for a garage coating that did not involve complicated preparation, such as acid-etching or grinding the concrete, as well as not requiring a two-part mixture, like an epoxy. After some online research I went with Rust Bullet’s DuraGrade product. After a power wash and some simple treatment of a couple of oil stains, we applied two thin coats with a roller and a cut in brush and let it cure for three days. The product had a strong smell going on, but it dissipated quickly. I was incredibly pleased with the results. The color is true to the sample and covered evenly.     Conclusion: Rust Bullet DuraGrade may seem expensive, but it is well worth it.

Recent Testimonials

The great thing about this paint is you can apply it directly on concrete, and acid etching is entirely unnecessary. It offers consistent performance, both indoors and outdoors. I used it on my patio and garage floor, being an outdoor paint also, you might be thinking that it can be damaged due to severe weather. The truth is it is UV- and chemical resistant and retains its effectiveness in harsh weather.

The Best Ever, looks like a polished floor.

The product is expensive but not really as bad as you might think. I used 5 gallons to apply 4 very thin coats to 819 ft./sq. Worked out to about $1.25 ft./sq. My comments,
1. The material went way farther than I expected, 350 ft./sq. first coat up to 500 ft./sq. finish coat. I laid 4 coats to get the mil’s you need. It dry’s slow at 10% RH in Sparks NV!!
2.You will get solvent bubbles if you do not apply very thin. I used a microfiber 3/8” from Home Depot and it worked great.
3. I prepped the floor with spot degreasing followed by a floor buffer using two 80 grit sanding screens. It took 4 hours of sanding to generate mounds of cement dust. I swept it up, vac it with water, then used the floor buffer with water and a green pad to open up the floor. Sucked it up with a vac. Last step was pressure washer and vac. It was clean.
4. My final comment is it is easier than epoxy, works much better on smoother concrete. What a shine
