Product Information
Full details
The Fertan Rust Killer is an essential solution for automotive enthusiasts, DIY restorers, and homeowners looking to halt metal degradation. Its primary benefit lies in its chemical conversion process, which transforms active rust into a stable, non-corrosive protective layer, effectively stopping the oxidation process in its tracks. While it provides excellent long-term protection, users should note that the treatment requires a curing period and specific surface preparation before it can be painted over.

FAQs
Can I paint directly over the Fertan Rust Killer?
Yes, once the surface has fully cured and you have wiped away the loose residue with a damp cloth, it is ready for priming and painting.
Do I need to remove all the rust first?
You should remove loose, flaky rust with a wire brush, but Fertan is designed to chemically convert the microscopic rust that remains.
Is this product suitable for large areas?
While effective, the 30ml bottle is optimized for small, targeted spot repairs. For very large panels, you may require a larger volume of product.
Can I use this on non-ferrous metals like aluminum?
No, this product is specifically formulated for iron and steel-based metals prone to rust.
What should I do if I get the product on my skin?
Wash the affected area immediately with soap and plenty of water.
How long does the protection last?
When properly applied and painted over, it provides long-term protection against the recurrence of rust.
Troubleshooting
The rust reappears shortly after application
This usually indicates the rust was too thick or loose to be fully converted. Wire brush the area thoroughly and reapply.
The coating is not drying properly
Ensure the application site is dry and the ambient temperature is above 5°C. High humidity may also extend the drying time.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Converts active rust into a stable, inert layer rather than just covering it
- Brush applicator allows for precise control on small areas
- Provides a professional-grade foundation for painting
- Compact size prevents waste for small touch-up jobs
Cons
- Requires a curing time before topcoat application
- Surface must be free of heavy loose scale for best results
- Small bottle volume is limited to spot repairs
- Dark color may require a high-quality primer to hide fully
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal results, begin by cleaning the surface of oils, waxes, and loose debris. Apply the Fertan solution directly to the rusted area using the integrated brush; a thin, even coat is generally sufficient. Ensure the ambient temperature is above 5°C during application to allow for proper chemical reaction. Once applied, allow the treated area to dry for 24 hours. After the curing phase, wipe the surface with a damp cloth to remove any residual dust before applying your primer. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly secured to maintain chemical potency.
