GEMPLER'S ® Rust Converter
One Quart

Item No: RCQ

Product
Information

Rust converter chemically converts rust into an inert, black barrier on steel or iron surfaces

  • Two Easy Steps - No sandblasting, heavy scraping or grinding...needs the rust to work!
  • Prevents Future Rusting - Seals out moisture and other outside elements
  • Excellent Primer - Paint over with oil-based paint
  • Easy to Use - Simply brush or sponge
  • Easy Cleanup - Water-based formula

Stop further rusting of old tools, vehicles, wagons, implements...anything with a rusted steel or iron surface. All you need to do is to first wire brush the surface to remove loose or layered scale. Then apply Rust Converter with a paint brush or sponge. Apply two coats for optimum coverage. Treated surface is primed and ready to paint with an oil-based paint in 48 hours or may even be left unpainted if not exposed to direct weather elements. One quart covers approximately 125 sq. ft. on a smooth, nonporous surface. Irregular, porous or textured surface may require more product. Environmentally safe, nonflammable. Easy-to-follow instructions on container. One quart.

NOTE: Do not allow Rust Converter to freeze. Nine month shelf life.

      I used this product to convert the rust on my RV's undercarriage. I'm no chemist, but is seems to do exactly what they claim. It looks like a melted milkshake going on, but turns to a dark, polymer-looking coating after a half-hour or so. I'll use it again elsewhere around the house when needed. One warning though: Don't spill it on concrete --it stains big time.

          Pros

          • Creates A Protective Coat
          • Easy to apply
          • Great protection
          • Smooth finish

          Cons

            Best Uses

            • Any metal surface
            • Badly Rusted Surface
            • New Steel

            Comments about GEMPLER'S Rust Converter One Quart:

            I coat new steel no matter where it is going. I coat rusted steel after a good wire brushing. Two coats about 20 minutes apart are perfect. When the finish turns black it is ready to paint (about 48 hours, also keep out of rain). Once dry it is an extremely hard undercoating, resistant to scraping. It is somewhat expensive, but goes a long way, can be applied by brush, roller, or spray, and flows out smooth. After all, what does it cost to grind down a rusted surface and repaint?
