FAQs

How quickly does the rust converter work?

The Jenolite Rust Converter Epoxy Spray chemically reacts with rust to convert it into a stable compound within approximately 15 minutes.

Do I need to remove all the rust before using this product?

It is recommended to remove loose rust and scale before application for best results, but the product is designed to convert existing rust, not just prevent new rust.

Can I leave the black finish as is?

Yes, the cured black surface can be left as is for a protective finish or can be painted over.

What kind of paint can I use over the cured rust converter?

Once fully cured, the surface can be painted with most standard water-based and oil-based paints.

What is the coverage of one can?

The approximate coverage is 2 square meters per 500ml can.

Is this product suitable for aluminum or galvanized steel?

This product is specifically designed for ferrous metal surfaces (iron and steel) and is not recommended for aluminum or galvanized steel.

Can this be used on heavily pitted rust?

Yes, the product is effective on heavily pitted rust, converting it into a stable surface. Ensure loose rust is removed first.

Troubleshooting

Spray nozzle is blocked.

Turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle. If blockage persists, remove the nozzle and soak it in a suitable solvent, then rinse thoroughly.

Uneven spray pattern.

Shake the can more frequently during use. Ensure the can is held at the correct distance and angle to the surface.

Rust is not converting.

Ensure all loose rust has been removed and that the product is applied directly to the rusted surface. Check that the can has been shaken sufficiently.

Paint is not adhering after application.

Allow the rust converter to fully cure before applying paint. Ensure the painted surface is clean and free from contaminants.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Quickly stops and converts rust, saving time on preparation.
Creates a durable, primer-ready surface, simplifying the painting process.
Prevents rust from returning, extending the lifespan of metal items.
Suitable for a wide range of common household and automotive metal repairs.
Easy spray application allows access to intricate areas.

Cons

Requires loose rust to be removed prior to application.
The black finish may require a primer if a different topcoat color is desired.
Coverage is approximate and may vary based on surface condition and application thickness.
Not suitable for non-ferrous metals or surfaces without rust.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the metal surface is free from grease, oil, and loose rust particles. Shake the can vigorously for at least two minutes before use.

Application: Hold the can approximately 15-25 cm from the surface and spray in even, sweeping motions. Apply a second coat if necessary after the first has begun to dry. Allow the treated area to cure completely, which typically takes around 15 minutes for rust conversion and longer for full curing before painting.

Compatibility: This product is ideal for ferrous metal surfaces (iron and steel). It acts as a primer and can be overpainted with most standard water-based and oil-based paints once fully cured.

Care: Store the can in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition. Ensure the nozzle is clear after use by inverting the can and spraying for a few seconds.
