Description
A water-based rust converter primer that turns existing rust into a hydrophobic passive layer instead of blasting it off. One coat, water cleanup, and 0.1 lbs/gal VOC. Remove loose rust first — it reduces surface prep, it does not eliminate it.
Typical applications
- Rusted steel requiring minimal surface preparation
- Rust conversion prior to topcoating
- Maintenance repainting over corroded substrates
- Field and touch-up primer work
