Add a pop of bright red to your patio this year. This brilliant red color is easily applied to a metal outdoor bar cart with a few coats of Stops Rust spray paint in Fire Red. Invite the guests, bring out the beverages and show off your new-to-you cart! 

First, place your cart over a drop cloth. Shake can vigorously for one minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle. 

Hold the spray paint can upright 10-16" from surface and spray in a steady back-and-forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke. Keep the can the same distance from the surface and in motion while spraying. Apply two or more light coats a few minutes apart. 

Your project will be dry to touch in 1 hour. Apply a second coat within 1 hour or after 48 hours.
