It comes in 21 different colors and finish combinations so you can customize the look of your next DIY project. However, not every color is available in every finish. This spray paint creates a barrier against rust on metal surfaces and has even coverage on concrete. We think it is ideal for smaller objects that are made of concrete as well as other materials.

Although they generally take longer to dry than water-based paints, oil-based paints are known for their durability and resistance to harsh weather conditions.

You will find many types of materials used in making stair treads and nosing. Many have their advantages but for high traffic areas like your business you want to make sure you use the best materials possible. That is why we use high-quality aluminum when manufacturing our treads. The difference between indoor and outdoor stair treads? One of the best ways to make your outdoor spaces safer is by fixing anti-slip stair tread to its stairs, ramps, and anywhere else that could pose a risk when wet or otherwise. The fact that stairs and other outdoor access points become their most slippery and, therefore, dangerous when wet tells it so. Aluminum is arguably the best material for anti-slip tread for its corrosion resistance and durability in construction. Often made of natural or even recycled materials, rubber mats are strong, last long, and are a thoughtful choice for the environment. Sand the Surface: Use a medium-grit sandpaper to sand any rough spots or remaining paint residue. This step helps create a smooth and even surface for the paint to adhere to.
