PerformanceDIY vs Rustoleum

Thank you for your inquiry about the differences between Performance DIY products and the consumer line typically found in big box stores, such as Rust-Oleum.

Our Performance DIY range is engineered with 100% solid epoxy, ensuring the highest quality and durability. This formulation provides superior coverage and longevity, ensuring that you achieve the best value and performance. Unlike our products, consumer lines like Rust-Oleum contain approximately 38% solids, with the remainder largely made up of water. This difference in composition means that while these consumer products may appear more cost-effective, they offer less coverage and durability.

At Performance DIY, we have dedicated over 40 years to manufacturing products tailored for high-performance applications, suitable for environments such as automotive and industrial facilities. Our products are designed to deliver the same high-quality results across various applications, ensuring professional-grade outcomes.

Moreover, our epoxy formulations vary to cater to specific needs and applications, incorporating elements like polyamide, aliphatics, and cycloaliphatics, offering different benefits, including high UV stability and chemical resistance.

We aim to provide the best value per square foot, making our products accessible for DIY enthusiasts without the need for professional installation. Following our straightforward instructions, customers can achieve professional results at a fraction of the cost.

For those seeking short-term solutions, consumer lines may suffice. However, for long-term durability and a transferable lifetime warranty, we recommend our professional-grade products. Our certified coating systems are designed for those who demand the highest level of performance and longevity from their investments.

Thank you again for your time and interest. If you have any more questions or need further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us.
