The only thing I would say, and it’s not really a criticism, is that the color is definitely dark gray. The photos in the listing show a lamp base and a mailbox to demonstrate the color, but in my opinion, they both look brownish gray, almost sable.
However, the color from the can is gunmetal gray, just like the can says, no brown whatsoever. So I guess it’s really the photos that I think are a bit misleading. That could be an issue with my computer monitor’s color settings, but I did buy another color from Rustoleum, and that color was identical to the photos in the listing.
Anyway, one can almost covered one side of an old battered and rusty screen door (without the screen), so it took three cans to get the whole screen door done. Looks fine, and it really covered up the rust and scratches. After rescreening and replacing the handle, it will look very good, not new, but so much better than before.
(A brand new screen door from Ace would have been more than twice as expensive once you add up the cost of three cans of spray paint, a rescreening kit, and a new door handle, so that’s cool, plus it’s a fun project and I’m enjoying doing the work myself!)
The top photo is when I tried to paint the mirror with a gold paint but it came out way too yellow orange so I got this spray as a last ditch effort to save the mirror and I love how it came out! I did about two light coats and it came out really nicely opaque.
Warning for those new to spray paint - it goes absolutely everywhere so wear a mask and best to do it outside!

It's important to understand that shimmery/metallic paints are NOT opaque. They're going to be somewhat translucent. The shimmer you get from a metallic paint is usually from either mica (rocks) or some type of manufactured glitter. If these particles were mixed into an opaque paint base, they would completely disappear. I just don't want people to be disappointed in the results they get from using a metallic paint if they were expecting it to be more opaque than it is.
To get the best results from metallic finishes, use a base coat first as a primer. I personally recommend black as your primer color for metallics, unless you are using something like a clear glitter spray that is totally translucent. In my photos I used the turquoise metallic spray paint, and since it's already got a paint color built in I used a black base. There's two main reasons why black is the preferred base color: it enhances a metallic finish much better than a white base. It just shows up better, and won't look as streaky. Even if you miss a few spots, which I certainly did, it's far less noticeable. Dark colors also reflect more light.
Because metallic spray paint is semi-sheer, it also means you'll need less coats over a black base to achieve a good color result. You can technically get an opaque result with a metallic spray paint, but you'll need to apply SEVERAL coats which means more time and more money since you may have to buy extra cans. I do wish companies that make spray paints added opacity information on the cans the way most artist paints do. Otherwise it goes without saying that customers will be disappointed if they're not getting a result they expect.
Lastly, keep in mind that metallics are more prone to fading over time (years though, not days or months) when exposed to UV light. So I definitely recommend adding a protective clear coat over it. Something that seals the paint and offers some UV protection and added durability so the paint doesn't chip off. I like using Krylon's Crystal Clear acrylic coating for those reasons, plus it is moisture resistant. I guess it just depends on what you're painting and what is important to you.
Anyway, I love how the turquoise metallic color turned out on some otherwise ugly (but useful) black plastic crates. I did two coats. The black base gives it some added dimension, almost an ombre look. I plan to place them on some highly reflective stainless steel shelves which is one reason I went with a metallic finish for these crates. Now I want to spray everything in the house this color!
