A. You can apply one coat to achieve 3 – 6 mil DFT (dry film thickness). The recommended method of use is Graco’s Xtreme King 244478 or equivalent for Rustonic-Mastic™, Rustcoat-Mastic™, and Rustguard-Mastic™. Check recommended nozzle tip size with local Graco representative. Set pump for 56:1. Hose diameter: ½ inch; hose length: 25 – 50 ft. Contact local Graco representative for any clarifications. For Rustonic™, Rustcoat™, and Rustguard™ use Graco’s Xtreme Bulldog 244458 or equivalent. Again, check recommended nozzle tip size with local Graco representative. Set pump for 33:1. Hose diameter: ½ inch; hose length: 25 – 50 ft. Contact local Graco representative for any clarifications. Please check with your local Graco distributor for the necessary airless gun equipment.
