Rust converter is an efficient and environmentally friendly metal anti-rust treatment material that can convert rust into a stable protective film to prevent further corrosion of the metal. The correct use of rust converter can not only extend the service life of metal products, but also reduce maintenance costs.
1. Surface pretreatment Clean the surface: Use a wire brush, sandpaper or high-pressure water gun to remove the heavy rust, oil and dust on the metal surface. Make sure that there are no obvious impurities on the treated surface so that the converter can fully penetrate. Drying treatment: Use a dry cloth or compressed air to thoroughly wipe off the surface moisture to avoid moisture affecting the conversion effect.
2. Converter application dilution ratio: According to the product manual, dilute the rust converter for metal with clean water in an appropriate ratio (usually 1:2-1:5) and stir evenly. Evenly spray: Use a spray gun, brush or roller to evenly apply the diluted converter to the rusted area to ensure that every corner is fully covered. For complex structures, multiple applications or immersion treatments can be used. Reaction time: Let it stand for 15-30 minutes and observe the rust layer gradually transform into a black or gray-blue protective film. If the rust layer is thick, it can be reapplied once.
3. Subsequent treatment and cleaning residue: wipe the excess converter on the surface with a damp cloth to avoid residue affecting the appearance. Coating protection: After the surface is completely dry (about 24 hours), anti-rust paint or coating can be sprayed as needed to enhance the protective effect.
Wear protective gloves and masks during operation to avoid skin contact or inhalation of converter vapor. Store in a cool and ventilated place, away from fire, and prevent children from contact. The converter has limited effect on metals such as aluminum and copper, and the scope of application must be confirmed before use.
A machinery factory uses high heat rust converter to process scrap steel parts, which not only restores the rusted parts to a usable state, but also saves 60% of the replacement cost. The converted metal remains in good condition after 3 months of outdoor exposure, verifying its long-term protective performance. Rust converter is easy to operate, low cost, and has both environmental protection and safety characteristics. Mastering the correct use method can effectively solve the problem of metal rust, and is suitable for the maintenance and maintenance of industrial equipment, building components and daily metal products.
