Rust Converter
A rust converter is a chemical solution or primer designed to transform iron oxide (rust) into a more stable, protective compound that can be painted or coated over, without the need to completely remove all rust beforehand..
* How Rust Converters Work
Rust converters typically contain tannic acid and phosphoric acid.
Tannic acid reacts with rust to form iron tannate, a black, stable compound.
Phosphoric acid reacts with rust to form iron phosphate, which provides a protective layer.
* How to Use a Rust Converter
1. Remove loose rust and debris using a wire brush or sandpaper.
2. Clean the surface with a degreaser to remove oil or contaminants.
3. Apply the rust converter evenly using a brush, spray, or roller.
4. Allow it to dry (typically 24 hours) as it chemically reacts.
5. Paint or coat the surface for added protection. # Rust Converter Manufacturer.
