Instead of throwing out rusted automotive parts that you know will be hard to replace, use Eastwood Rust Converter to restore their performance. This acidic paint is formulated for panels and parts that have heavier rust but still are structurally intact. By spraying Rust Converter on the surface, you trigger a chemical reaction that turn residual rust into more stable iron oxide. It also forms a paintable black protective coating that is compatible with most topcoats. Last but not least, Rust Converter seals the metal to help prevent future corrosion.
Rust Converter stops residual rust, and turns it into a black, protective, ready-to-paint coating, without sanding. Just apply to transform the rust

Didn’t live up to expectationsFirst time using the product. I used it on rusty areas of my mower deck. Found that applying paint within the prescribed window did not work well. Was putting John Deere yellow on and it was still tacky 24 hours later. Just didn’t adhere well at all over the rust product.

Unable to convert rust on unpainted metal surfacesRust Converter wasn't able to convert rust on unpainted metal surfaces, despite multiple coats. It may work better for light surface rust on painted surfaces. Also, after several coats, it built up a sticky coating that wasn't suited for top-coat painting. For rust on unpainted surfaces, I had much better luck with Rust Encapsulator.

New and improved???They have changed the nozzle on these now. They will not work with the extended nozzle to get in those can’t get to areas.
Can you spray epoxy primer over the rust converter ?
Asked by: Scotty
It is recommended to use our Eastwood Rust Encapsulator or (Plus) over the Rust Convertor.

does it spray on clear then turns black?
Asked by: tom h
Yes when applying Rust Converter to the surface, either by spraying or brushing, initiates a chemical reaction that transforms residual rust into stable iron oxide. This process also creates a paintable black protective coating compatible with most topcoats. Additionally, Rust Converter seals the metal to prevent future corrosion.
