FAQs

How long does the Rapide DP-60 last?

DP-60 provides exceptionally long-lasting protection. The exact lifespan depends on environmental conditions and usage but is designed for prolonged periods of protection.

Can I apply DP-60 over existing rust?

Yes, DP-60 is designed to arrest existing corrosion. However, remove loose rust and scale before application for best results.

What color is the coating?

The coating forms a touch-dry, brown, wax-like film.

Is Rapide DP-60 like Waxoyl?

Yes, Rapide DP-60 is similar to Waxoyl in its function and application, providing a protective wax-based coating.

How many cans will I need?

Coverage depends on the size of the area and number of coats applied. One 400ml can is usually sufficient for a vehicle's underbody, but multiple cans may be needed for larger vehicles or more thorough coverage.

What should I do if I get the spray on my skin?

Wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation persists, consult a physician.

What safety precautions should I take?

Use in a well-ventilated area. Wear gloves and eye protection. Avoid inhaling the spray. Keep away from heat and open flames.

Troubleshooting

Coating appears uneven or runs.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared. Apply thin, even coats, and avoid spraying too heavily in one area. Allow each coat to dry before applying another.

Rust reappears after application.

Ensure all loose rust was removed before application. Multiple coats might be necessary. Consider additional rust treatment before applying the DP-60.

Spray nozzle clogs.

Clean the nozzle after each use. Turn the can upside down and spray until only propellant comes out.
