Description
This specially formulated rust remover is a powerful, rust-fighting liquid created to meet the needs of auto restorers.
- Ideal Prep for Painting and Powder Coating
- Leaves Zinc Phosphate Coating
- Promotes Adhesion and Prevents Rust
It reaches even inaccessible areas, quickly dissolving iron oxide completely and leaving a zinc phosphate coating. Fast Etch can be sprayed, brushed, or used as a parts dip. It is non-toxic, non-flammable and reusable. This is not a primer. Treated surfaces should be wiped with PRE Painting Prep (10041 Z) or thinner before priming and painting. Only the quart size comes with a sprayer.

Questions & Answers
Can I use fiberglass/filler over the zinc coating?
The protective coating this leaves behind after use needs to be neutralized first with PRE or Acetone and then yes- you can.

Do I need to re sand the metal after using fast etch before priming?
It depends on the scenario. If the surface was not sanded and you are applying a primer that requires a mechanical abrasion then yes- sanding still has to be done. You want to ensure you neutralize the temporary protective coating this leaves behind by using our PRE before and after sanding.

After 30 minutes should the remaining wet fat etch solution be wiped off or allowed to dry? What if PRE isn't currently at hand?
That should be wiped off and not allowed to dry. If pre is not available then we recommend using acetone.

I used the fast etch on my 1940 Olds hood. One side looks great ,the other has white streaks in the pitted area! Is this a problem?
I used a scotch brite pad with it and it was pretty effective. I went it then scrubbed then wet again. Had drip pans below and reused the dissolver.
