Eastwood Black Rust Encapsulator - Paint Over Rust

Product Overview:

Description

Stop rust in its tracks! Rust Encapsulator is the easiest way to stop and prevent rust and corrosion from spreading.

  • Superior durability (tested to 500 hours in a salt-spray chamber)
  • UV Resistance - a topcoat is not needed
  • Penetrates deeper to prevent rust from spreading or forming, even in hard-to-reach areas
  • Requires minimal prep and cures fast
  • Available in convenient spray aerosol or brush on quart and gallon sizes
  • Heat resistant to 400F
  • 2%-10% Gloss Level

Simply wire brush any loose rust, wipe with PRE painting prep to clean the surface and apply. Eastwood Rust Encapsulator has proven to be superior in UV resistance, preventing rust creep, and overall durability.

Eastwood Rust Encapsulator has been tested by an independent lab to be one of the most effective rust-preventive products yet. Rust Encapsulator is a great primer for floor pans and other underbody parts. It fills tiny pin-holes and surface irregularities, and is compatible with lacquer, enamel and urethane topcoats (including Eastwood Chassis Black). For the absolute ultimate rust remedy, first brush or spray-on Eastwood Rust Converter, then prime with Rust Encapsulator. One 15-oz. aerosol covers about 10 sq. ft., and contains no isocyanates. One Gallon covers about 160 Sq Ft. Heat-resistant up to 400°F. Made in the USA.

For Improved Protection check out Rust Encapsulator Plus and for ULTIMATE PROTECTION you will want to use Rust Encapsulator Platinum.

FAQs

(Q) Can Rust Encapsulator be applied with the Undercoating System?
(A) Technically, yes, but this application isn't recommended because Rust Encapsulator requires surface to be free of grease, oil, and loose rust. The best product to coat inside box sections is Internal Frame Coating or Heavy-Duty Anti-Rust . These products require minimal prep and will creep into seams and pinch welds.

Safety Information

Work in a well-ventilated area when applying this product. The use of a respirator is recommended. Shake aerosol vigorously for 2 minutes before spraying.

Accessories

In places where little or no surface prep can be done, our Internal Frame Coating or Heavy-Duty Anti-Rust (16017ZP) is actually a better choice for applying into blind areas such as box sections.

Application Tips

Use a wire brush to remove loose rust, scale and paint, and remove dust, grease and oil deposits. Wipe down with Pre Painting Prep (10041Z). Feather surrounding paint with 220-grit sandpaper. Shake can for at least 2 minutes once the mixing ball starts to rattle. Hold the Rust Encapsulator can 10-12" above surface as you spray. A single coat dries to the touch in 20 minutes, and is thoroughly dry in 3-4 hours at 68°F. For greater durability, a second coat can be applied 1 hour after the first. Allow 6-8 hours after the last coat before applying topcoat. Use over or under body fillers.

The Rust Encapsulator Quarts and Gallons can be sprayed right out of the can with a conventional HVLP spray gun with a 1.3 - 1.4 tip.

Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent primer for cast iron radiators Eastwood rust encapsulator was the perfect product to prime my old cast iron radiators for a single stage urethane. The epoxy base gives it excellent adherence. The product goes on glossy but will dry to a very durable matte black finish. The product is holding up perfectly after a year of 200 degree temperatures. I don’t anticipate ever having to repaint these I used an Eastwood Concours LT100 HVLP Paint Gun to apply all products.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Rust encapsulator Depending where you are applying it I would spray it on for a smoother finish

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great on frames. I used this product on a frame off restoration of my Jeep. Over 50k miles later all my black paint looks great. I now use it as a primer for all my antique projects. Currently doing a 1952 Ferguson TO 30.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great stuff Used this on my 65 engine bay where I had a mix of new and old metal with surface rust. Used a pint for the firewall, inner and outer aprons, radiator support, and frame rails. I was able to get a good two coats with 1 pint. Great coverage. Going to top coat with Eastwood chassis primer and paint.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Black rust encapsulator Prep the surface and it will bind very well. I like the satin sheen of the paint vs gloss. Flows well into all the crevices.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Black Rust Encapsulator Use to buy black in spray can on sale and they supposed to has shelf life of a year and I didn’t use them for 6 months and they hadn’t been open or used and shook twice as long but I’ve got around 5 or 6 cans that I barely got a little out and it was like tar trying to get out, hadn’t had that problem with red and they said if I had told or used in 3 months they would make it up so I’ve stopped getting as much stuff from Eastwood but I was wanting this in quart so I’ll be able to use

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great customer service, and great product! The package arrived and the can opened up in the box, wasn’t sure what to do and Eastwood got right back to me and said they were sending a replacement!

Questions & Answers

How soon after applying Rust Encapsulator can I apply 2K Ceramic Chassis black? Do I wait 6-8 hrs or can it be applied within 1 hr as with any other primer?

Asked by: steve
Single coats of Eastwood Rust Encapsulator™ will be dry to the touch in 20 minutes and thoroughly dry in 3-4 hours at 68 degrees F. If a second coat is desired for greater durability, allow 1 hour before applying the second coat. If applying heavy coats, allow extra drying time before applying.

Can I use this rust encapsulator on the bottom side of an F150 rocker panel? I’m starting to get some rust forming on them on the bottom side near the front tires.  I’m assuming tire debris started to wear the black paint off and then the rust started.

Asked by: Jblaze748
Yes, your probably correct. You may also look at our Rust Dissolver or Remover before the Rust Encapsulator. Depending on the amount of rust and if it has begun to penetrate the rocker. You may benefit by looking closer to the area the rust has begun to attack. At that point the Rust Encapsulator may be enough.

Hi, Can this be sprayed? Also, do you have to sand it to paint over it?

Asked by: Rico
Yes you can spray it. If too thick dilute with up to 20% lacquer thinner. You do not have to sand, you can, but I typically wire brush to get loose rust flakes/dust off then clean it good with PRE painting prep (our cans work great, acetone also works good) before painting.

Got a frame that's not to bad on rust would I want to do the converter before encapsulator

Asked by: Aj1977
You put the Rust Encapulator right over the surface rust no need to use the convertor first. You just have to get all the loose rust, scale and paint and then clean up all the dust, grease and oil and then just paint it on.

Would this be a good application for metal siding that is starting to rust at the bottom? If so, can I paint over it to match the rest of the siding?

Asked by: mr16track
Yes, but our Platinum would be the best bet. This can be top coated but we can only technically guarantee with products that we sell. If applying other paints over- test on scrap metal first or on a small section.
