How to Use It: Step-by-Step Guide
Scenario 1: Refreshing a Rusty Garden Gate
Imagine you’ve got a metal gate that’s seen better days. It’s rusty, dull, and making your property look neglected.
Step 1: Clean the surface
Use a wire brush to remove loose rust, dirt, and old paint. Wipe it down with a degreaser or solvent.
Step 2: Apply Hall’s 2-in-1 DTM
Use a brush for small sections or a spray gun for a more even finish. No primer necessary!
Step 3: Let it dry
It’s touch dry in 10–15 minutes. If you want to apply a second coat, wait at least an hour.
Step 4: Enjoy the transformation
Your gate now has a smooth, clean, rust-resistant finish, and you saved time by skipping the priming stage.

That old metal table and chair set in your backyard? It doesn’t need to go to the dump.
