It will definitely extend the protective qualities of the surface from adverse weather including rain, salt mist and direct sunlight. Is it necessary to paint over Rust Converter? Although it’s not required, if your surface is exposed to the outdoor elements, we highly recommend applying two coats of a quality oil-based paint over Rust Converter. Porous, textured and irregular surfaces will require a heavier application rate.Ĭan I apply a primer coat over Rust Converter? Yes, an oil based primer may be applied over Rust Converter, but is not required. How much metal will one gallon cover? One gallon covers up to 500 square feet of rusted metal. Should Rust Converter be thinned? Rust Converter should not be thinned and should be applied as it comes out of the bottle, after being properly shaken or stirred. Any sprayer that states it will spray water based paint will be a good choice.Ĭan I apply Rust Converter over non-rusted or painted surfaces? Yes, Rust Converter will adhere to non-rusted or painted surfaces but it does not provide any additional rust prevention when used on these surfaces. It is too thick, even in the sprayable format, for these devices. Rust Converter does not work in garden pump sprayers. It can also be sprayed on, but we recommend using an airless sprayer.Ĭan a pump up garden sprayer be used to apply Rust Converter? No. Use a brush for smaller applications and a roller for larger surfaces. How is Rust Converter applied? For best results, apply Rust Converter with a brush or a roller. If the surface is subject to salt water spray for deicing salts, rinse the surface thoroughly with water, and allow it to dry prior to applying Rust Converter. This step ensures that other surface contaminants will not interfere with the reaction of the rust converter on the rusted surface.

Rust Converter cannot penetrate grease or oil, so clean and degrease the surface first, then let it dry.

The point is not to remove all the rust (this defeats the purpose of Rust Converter) as Rust Converter chemically bonds to the rust and seals it in. The object of this step is to get any loose or flaking rust off as it does not provide a stable surface. You will want to remove large rust and scale particles with a stiff bristled brush, hammer or sandpaper. How do I prepare the surface for application? Good surface preparation will enable the Rust Converter to work effectively and leads to a high quality end result. As a general rule, Rust Converter is a good solution to fixing rust on items you would consider painting. It will not work on aluminum, copper, stainless steel or galvanized metal. It can be used on vehicles, trailers, fences & gates, iron railings and staircases, sheet metal, cast iron, outsides of tanks, lawn equipment, mower decks, farm equipment, tractors to name just a few.

What is the shelf life for Rust Converter? Rust Converter has a shelf life of 9 months.

How is Rust Converter different than a rust remover? Rather than removing rust, a rust converter mixes chemically with rust to create a black inert substance that can be painted over, concealing the existence of any rust and preventing further corrosion. The overall chemical reaction converts rust into a stable, black protective polymeric coating that serves as an excellent primer for both oil and epoxy based paints. The second active ingredient is a proprietary organic polymer that provides a protective primer layer. Tannins are a group of water- and alcohol-soluble natural products extracted from fruits, trees and grasses. The first ingredient, tannic acid, reacts with iron oxide (rust) and chemically converts it to iron tannate, a dark-colored stable material. What is Rust Converter? Rust Converter, a water-based primer, contains two active ingredients: Tannic acid and an organic polymer.
