Metal Shield costs [http://www.metalshield.com/buyrustproofing.html $50 per gallon]. It can be sprayed on, brushed, or rolled. Hy-Tech recommends 6-8 mils per coat, which yields approximately 150 square feet per gallon ($0.33 per square foot). However, they also say that Metal Shield "can be applied up to 20 mils thick for additional soundproofing and insulating properties with no sagging or running". At 20 mils, this would be closer to $1 per square foot. | Metal Shield costs [http://www.metalshield.com/buyrustproofing.html $50 per gallon]. It can be sprayed on, brushed, or rolled.
