Application

Anywhere a fine finish is not required after corrosion treatment with Rust Converter.

Examples: automotive, trailers, agriculture, commercial vehicles (e.g. salt sprayers), heavy construction machinery, metal constructions, railings, tank voids including ballast and cargo, bridges, window ledges, oil rigs, steel hull boats and ships, pontoons, hatches – all sectors using metal parts in oxidizing or salty atmospheres or where they have to be protected against rust.

Instructions

  1. The surface must be free from oil, grease, loose rust and blistered paint deposits. Salt must be removed using a suitable detergent and water.
  2. Apply by brush, roller or sprayer. Ensure all areas of corrosion are covered. Depending on the condition of the surface, up to 3 coats may be required to ensure complete coverage and conversion (wait at least 1 hour before applying an additional coat).
  3. When Rust Converter gets into contact with rust, the fluid starts to react forming a blue film as the product converts to a stable, ferrous, organic complex.
  4. Touch dry after 15 – 45 minutes. Do not allow the coating to get wet while drying. Allow to cure for 24 hours before applying overcoat. An application of a wet film thickness of 50 – 100 micron should cover 10 – 15 sqm per liter of product. Test compatibility before use.
  5. Clean the brush, roller or sprayer with water after use.
