Preparation

Before you start painting, you need to prepare the aluminum patio surface. This involves cleaning the surface with an aluminum patio cleaner and TSP. Once the surface is clean, you need to sand it lightly with sandpaper to remove any dirt or debris.

Painting

Once the surface is prepared, you can start painting. Apply Rust-Oleum Aluminum Patio Paint to the surface using a paintbrush or roller. Be sure to apply even coats and allow each coat to dry completely before applying the next.

Once the paint is dry, you can finish the job by applying a clear coat of Rust-Oleum Aluminum Patio Sealer. This will help protect the paint from the elements and make it more durable.
