Rust-Oleum 379906-2PK Concrete Interior Wall Paint, Quart, Charcoal, (Pack of 2)

I'm pretty happy with how this looks. Breaks up the plain looking walls. I'm installing a tank-less water heater and wanted something that would look good with the silver tone of it. Used short X style brush stokes and it turned out great.

I used this paint to create a concrete effect on my wall, and the result was stunning. The coverage is excellent, and the application was smooth. It dries evenly and gives a sophisticated, modern look. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a stylish, textured finish.

I’ve used this product before in our garage studio to create a faux-concrete wall, and the result was fantastic—so much so that my son asked for the same finish in his new bedroom. Unfortunately, my recent experience has been very inconsistent due to what seems like a temperature/shipping issue. I first ordered a two-can set, and both cans arrived completely unusable—thick, chunky, and impossible to apply (like trying to paint with cream cheese). I had to return them and delay the project. I then placed two separate orders for single cans. One arrived in perfect condition, but the other was again unusable. From what I can tell, this product is extremely sensitive to temperature during storage and shipping—if it freezes, it separates and cannot be recovered. So whether you receive a usable product seems to depend heavily on how it was stored and transported. When it arrives in good condition, the finish is beautiful. But be aware that you may end up reordering if the product has been exposed to cold temperatures in transit.

Y’all, this treatment saved the day! We had hideous granite counters, but we didn’t want to pay $2k to replace them (plus unhooking plumbing, etc). I wanted an urban loft feel, so I tried this concrete paint. AMAZING! I did it in one afternoon just following the directions. Easy. Then I put on five coats of clear sealer. We love the look and the texture. Our carpenter said he loved it and asked who did it. Ha! We’ve had it for a couple months now: no chips or stains. Water rolls right off. Perfect. The last picture is a before shot of part of the counter.

I bought the charcoal gray, and just now got to applying it. It was in the lower 80° Temps and about 65% humidity. First, the color is a little blue-er than I thought it would be, more of a dark slate charcoal blue. Second, my application is not a wall as recommended, but still for indoor use. I am using some old plywood as the test subject, old reddish birch half inch ply. I had polyurethane on it before. I gave a good sand with 220 and 320, and applied several coats of Bin 123 gray until I achieved coverage. Let stand for at least an hour and started with the concrete paint. At first I did like instructed with a synthetic chip brush. I did not like what I was getting, but I was going for a flat concrete look. I then proceeded with a fine foam roller for the remainder. After about 3 to 4 thin coats, I was able to pretty much double the amount of paint dispensed per face. It was drying very fast, but since I had 6 faces to paint, by the time I had all 6 done, the 1st was already dry. I just kept going. I did about 3 coats of the double amount, and the coverage, texture, and thickness are close to what I want. I may try and sand lightly with 800 grit tomorrow to lighten the color. It seems to be a pretty durable and robust paint that fills in voids well.

I love this stuff! I’ve been wanting to do. Roman clay wall but didn’t want all the work that comes with it on my 16 ft tall wall. It turned out so good! I even used it on my wood fireplace as well. Just do small X’s. I had colored paint underneath and I didn’t want to paint my whole wall white first so it took 4 coats but so worth it!

I don’t write many reviews but this product I was very skeptical of. Needless to say it came out just as well as it states. Make sure you stay to your X patterns. They can be big sloppy ones or small it really doesn’t matter. I just kind of slapped the brush back and forth using light paint on the brush. Realize after one coat it’ll kind of look like waves in water. As you do the second (I could have stopped there from the extra depth) but did a third and turned out great. Don’t mind the mess in my pics this was part one of a complete overhaul. Highly recommend and sounds more difficult than it is. Took no time to get done a coat for one length wise wall and one can covered for the three coats.

This came hard and of no consistency of paint.

Unfortunately product was not as described. Requested refund, which was approved but now I have to pay postage to send this back to the US. Overall disappointed with product and of course having to pay postage to return.
