The invention discloses an alkyd resin coating for an industrial outer wall. The alkyd resin coating comprises, by weight parts, 60-68 parts of drying oil alkyd resin, 20-50 parts of epoxy modified alkyd resin, 15-30 parts of acyclic acid modified alkyd resin, 2-4 parts of propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetic ester, 5-10 parts of propylene glycol, 5-10 parts of alcohol etherification melamine resin, 2-8 parts of urea resin, 1-3 parts of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol, 20-25 parts of carboxymethyl cellulose, 1-3 parts of silane coupling agent, 1-4 parts of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, 1-3 parts of polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene ether, 1-2 parts of wetting agent, 1-3 parts of solydimethyl siloxane, 0.5-1.5 parts of preservative, 1-2 parts of hydroxypropyl guar gum, 40-60 parts of water, 5-20 parts of amyl acetate, 5-10 parts of super fine calcium carbonate, 2-8 parts of magnesium silicate, 6-10 parts of kaolin and 2-8 parts of china clay. The invention further discloses a method for preparing the alkyd resin coating for the industrial outer wall. The alkyd resin coating for the industrial outer wall is good in adhesive force and excellent in corrosion resistance.
