Rust-Oleum 358832 Outdoor Fabric Spray Paint, 12 oz, Navy

The Rust-Oleum Fabric Paint did its jo just fine. My 9-foot umbrella is over 9 years old and faded from bright Red to pink. I used 2 cans of paint, one for each layer. I also added a “trigger grip” to the Rust-Oleum can and the job went easily and took a little over 2 hours, spraying two layers and waiting about an hour between sprays. The color, Chili Red is more Orange than red, but looks good with red brick. (See my photos). There was no clogging up of the paint spray as some reviewers stated, and the hand trigger is a “must” for every painter! Little pricey, but hopefully will be worth it. The umbrella feels and looks like new!! Highly recommend!!

I bought 3 cans. The spray nozzle on every can almost immediately clogged. I had to pull the tips off after making a pass or two to clean it out countless times. My hands were covered in paint. The constant issues with the tips clogging made the spray stream inconsistent so I ended up with streaks due to heavy and weak spray. It was a complete waste of money. The issue was with every can. I wish I would have just stopped after the first can, but I kept trying new cans thinking it was an isolated issue. Very disappointed.

My outdoor cushions are rust and we’re so sunbleached. Replacing them would have been outrageously expensive so I decided to try this. I had 6 large cushions, 7 medium cushions. I used the same color so I only had to do 2 coats on most. 3 coats on a few. I used 7 cans. Although the paint isn’t cheap. I did in an afternoon what I would have spent buying 3 new medium cushionsThey look and feel brand new! Not stiff or uneven at all.My only complaint is that a couple of cans didn’t spray as evenly as the rest so I had to be care of drips. I used a foam craft brush for that and to get into seams.

Worked well, but as others mentioned, cloggs were a near constant issue, but with a hot bucket of water nearby, I was able to put the nozzle briefly in the water to clear it and then start again. Others mentioned getting a better batch from Lowes, may be a good idea.

I had an old green awning that was supposed to be thrown away. When I looked at replacement costs, I decided to keep it. It sat in my backyard for over a year, until I got this idea to paint it. I used 2 cans and didn’t spray the inside of it. Outdoor fabric is tough to paint so if you have a larger project consider that you will need quite a few cans. I really needed 2 more cans to spray inside. Great product. It has endured very heavy rain and no color loss has occurred. No color transfer onto my pink colored house either.

This is very thin an wicks through the fabric. Its almost like a cross between a die and a paint. If you try to use it for a stencil it will ruin your project. Seems fine for other purposes.

I have purchased this paint multiple times to spruce up the fabric on my outdoor cushions over the last 10 years. I went from olive green to navy this year. It will take more paint than you expect because it does absorb into the fabric but by far the least expensive way to update high quality cushions because replacements are too expensive or don’t fit and recovering cushions would be too expensive too!

This was so aggravating. Ruined 4 used cushions I was going to paint, but just spotted them and worked long enough to spray a very light coat sporadically on the surface. This was on two cans. I tried one and it was useless, so I tried the other one and the same thing happened. Nozzle and application of this product are terrible. The paint may have been fine and the color looked decent, but the application was a failure. I called Rustoleum for a full refund. They were over $11.00 per can. Cushions, although used, will need to be tossed probably as I don't know if I can get the color corrected and it may be more expensive than they're worth. So aggravating to have this happen. Oh well, that's what reviews are for, I suppose.UPDATE: The description states this is eligible for refund or replacement. When I tried that on Amazon return page, it states it “this product is not eligible for return”. So, I then contacted Rustoleum themselves and she is supposed to send me a form and I’m to send a copy of the Amazon invoice to get a refund. We’ll see if this works out, but I just wanted to let one know to try that if they wanted to get a refund. It’s only around $25, but apparently they need to improve their spray nozzle on this product.
