Product Information
Full details
Fertan Rust Killer is an essential treatment for automotive enthusiasts, restorers, and DIY mechanics looking to neutralize existing corrosion and prevent future oxidation on steel surfaces. It excels at penetrating rusted areas to chemically convert corrosion into a stable, paint-ready surface for cars, vans, lorries, and bikes. While it provides robust long-term protection, users should note that the treatment requires a thorough curing period and clean-up of the residual black dust before applying a final topcoat.

FAQs
Can I use this on aluminum?
No, Fertan Rust Killer is designed specifically for ferrous metals like steel and iron.
Do I need to prime the surface after using Fertan?

How long does it take to cure?
You should allow at least 24 hours for the chemical conversion process to complete before cleaning and painting.
Is it safe for internal fuel tank use?
Fertan is not intended for the interior of fuel systems or tanks.
Can I spray it with an air compressor?
Yes, Fertan can be applied via spray equipment, provided the nozzle is cleaned immediately after use to prevent clogging.
What temperature is best for application?
For best results, apply in temperatures above 5°C.
Troubleshooting
Rust persists after one application
Heavy corrosion may require a second application. Ensure the surface remains moist with the product for the recommended time.
Paint is not sticking to the treated surface
Ensure all black residue dust was wiped away with a damp cloth before painting.
Product is running off the surface
Apply thinner layers and allow them to become tacky before adding another coat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To apply Fertan, ensure the surface is free of oil, grease, and heavy loose rust. Use a brush, roller, or sprayer to apply the liquid directly onto the affected area. It is important to work in an environment with a temperature above 5 degrees Celsius for optimal chemical conversion.
Compatibility is highest with steel and iron substrates. Always test a small, inconspicuous area if you are unsure about the metal alloy. For care and maintenance, ensure the bottle is tightly sealed after use and stored in a cool, dry place to prevent premature degradation of the active ingredients.
