Ready-to-Use Rust Converter (Plant-Based Formula)
A safe and reliable product made from natural plant-based raw materials. It effectively penetrates dense rust layers ranging from 2–12 mils (50–300 microns) and converts them into a durable protective layer of complex iron compounds.
It smooths damaged surfaces, prevents further corrosion, and improves adhesion and overall quality of subsequent paint and coating applications.
Odorless. Contains no organic solvents or hazardous substances.
APPLICATIONS
Designed for anti-corrosion protection and restoration of all steel surfaces, especially hard-to-reach areas, including:
– Reinforcing steel in concrete structures
– Structural steel in buildings and bridges
– Mines and industrial facilities
– Ship hulls
– Electrical and automotive components
– Industrial equipment
– Interior and exterior pipeline surfaces
– Storage tanks, including potable water tanks
– For use prior to applying protective coatings.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Remove flaking and loose rust, scale, old coatings, and dirt from the surface. Degrease if necessary.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Stir thoroughly before use. Apply the converter in a continuous, even coat without runs or missed spots using a brush, roller, sponge, or spray equipment.
If spraying, filtration prior to application is recommended.
Application temperature range: +41°F to +95°F (+5°C to +35°C). Optimal temperature: +59°F to +68°F (+15°C to +20°C). At optimal temperature, the rust conversion process takes up to 2 hours, indicated by the surface turning dark blue. If the rust layer exceeds 6 mils (150 microns), some untreated areas may remain after the first application. In this case, a second coat is recommended.
Avoid excess buildup on horizontal surfaces. If necessary, remove excess material with a damp sponge or cloth. Apply to vertical surfaces from bottom to top. After drying, do not rinse with water. If powdery conversion residues appear, remove them with a dry brush or cloth. Priming and painting should preferably be carried out immediately after the converter has dried. Until the protective coating has fully cured, protect the treated surface from moisture and precipitation.
COVERAGE
Coverage per single application:
87 – 130 sq ft per lb
(actual coverage depends on surface condition and rust thickness)
STORAGE & SAFETY
Store in tightly sealed original container at temperatures between +41°F and +95°F in a location inaccessible to children. Protect from direct sunlight and heat sources. Do not allow to freeze. When applying by spray, the use of a respirator is recommended.
Clean tools with water after use. Empty containers and fully dried product residues may be disposed of as household waste.
SHELF LIFE 24 months from date of manufacture.
