Do you guys thin the Hammertone paint and use in a spray or just us the spray cans?
If you do spray it ... how much and with what do you thin?
Thanks

I spray Hammerite with lacquer thinner. Use a big tip (2mm I think). Need to make sure you stir / shake the paint really well or you won't get a nice hammered finish.

Sherwin Williams has an industrial paint called Dimenso.. Unfortunately, I don't think they sell their industrial paints to just anyone... We paint machinery with it.. Unfortunately, they have discontinued the perfect hammer green. We just switched to a blue, that looks awesome. They make a grey as well, but haven't used it yet. Most of the grey we use is a spray bomb from a company that manufactures industrial sewing machines...

If no rust, do you just clean and paint the galvanized metal or prime first then spray the hammertone?
Thanks
