Review: Aquasteel Rust Converter and Primer 1 Litre - I've used this for a couple of winters keeping the rust at bay on a transit van and thought I'd share my experiences. This stuff is great and works really well if used correctly. The main point I can't stress enough is use it in warm, dry weather. Although the tech data sheet says min 6 deg C, the finish in cold, damp conditions is thin, brittle and 'pre-cracked': that is, it forms a sort of crazing which is perfect for moisure to get into and start levering little bits off again, so it won't last long. Similarly in damp conditions the chemical reaction seems a bit half-hearted and it never really cures properly. When the weather's warm and dry, the finish is more like a tough cured black resin, particularly when you've sploshed on a couple of coats. Second, depending on how thick the rust was to start with it may still be there underneath - deactivated but biding its time and waiting for a weakness! Like all coatings, the moment a stone chip exposes the rust to air/moisture again, even just a pinprick- it will get going again. Therefore the product is best regarded as a primer, think about what's going on top to prevent damage to the hard surface whether it's paint or waxoyl etc. Third, just to reiterate the instructions on the bottle - get all the flaky stuff off first. The stuff is good but it can't turn rust back to metal. If that means jabbing with a screwdriver with increasing concern as a tiny hole expands into a major welding job - well it was going to happen anyway! One of the pleasures of old car ownership in the UK. Finally I found that doing a reasonable job on all the rusty bits on the van used about 1 litre bottle. Hope this helps someone. Review: Good and it works low cost and out performs market leader - Used on a car restoration to convert some rust which didn't require cutting out. previously I had used some hammerite Kurust so did a side by side comparison test. I coated the rusty box section with Kurust and at the side used aquasteel I then left to cure they both turned black and the Kurust appeared stronger I then applied salt water to the pair of samples and allowed to dry once dry I reapplied more salt water and left them in the sun, later that night the rain came down and the following morning I checked on the samples. The aquasteel was still as it was left with no signs of rust reappearing or breaking through, the Kurust however was starting to breakout in rust again. a couple of notes the test was extreme the salt water was very salty and left in the exposed sun and rain and both products are meant to be painted over and that would make a difference in itself. saying that the aquasteel was as it was when it was applied and was a winner for me its the one I will be using in the future. The samples are still in the open and I'll be watching them over the coming months and winter to see what happens and will update here ## Features - Converts and Primes Rust all in one - Environmental - Safe to use - easy to apply - Coverage up to 12 sq mtrs per Litre ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003QZ3GNE | | Best Sellers Rank | 45,858 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) 174 in Rust Converters & Rust Removers | | Brand Name | Aquasteel | | Colour | Bronze | | Colour Code | #CD7F32 | | Container Type | Tin | | Country of Origin | United Kingdom | | Coverage | 12 | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (362) | | Finish Type | Matte | | Full Cure Time | 24 Hours | | Included Components | Brush | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Is Waterproof | True | | Item Form | spray | | Item Volume | 1 Litres | | Manufacturer | Bayer-Wood Technologies Limited | | Paint Type | Oil | | Part Number | 559/1 | | Size | 1 l (Pack of 1) | | Special Features | Odour Blocking | | Specific Uses For Product | Exterior, Marine, Architectural | | Surface Recommendation | Metal | | Unit Count | 1000.0 millilitre(s) | | Water Resistance Level | Waterproof | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Aquasteel - **Colour:** Bronze - **Finish type:** Matte - **Item volume:** 1 Litres - **Paint type:** Oil - **Size:** 1 l (Pack of 1) - **Special feature:** Odour Blocking - **Specific uses for product:** Exterior, Marine, Architectural - **Surface recommendation:** Metal - **Unit count:** 1000.0 millilitre(s) ## Images ![Rust Converter and Primer 1 Litre - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71CpsjfkxsL.jpg) ![Rust Converter and Primer 1 Litre - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21xWsvFkmuL.jpg) ![Rust Converter and Primer 1 Litre - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41a5R2-DYnL.jpg) ![Rust Converter and Primer 1 Litre - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21--5opk5QL.jpg) ![Rust Converter and Primer 1 Litre - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31xsTjH7ZXL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is it ok to use gunk engine degreaser and power wash off with clean warer before applying aquasteel?** A: Should be okay but do a test area first. Remember that Aquasteel needs rust to be present - for the conversion to take place. **Q: Can i use this for the inside of a diesel fuel tank.** A: Sorry, no - not suitable for any fuel tanks. **Q: Can it be used on exsust** A: Not sure (exhaust on a car), but I have used it on a metal chimney which gets really hot and it has worked well. If it is surface rust it will probably be fine but if it has rusted through and is holed I think new exhaust...sorry **Q: Is this thin enough to apply by hand spray?** A: I doubt it. Much better to apply with any old brush and rub it in. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Aquasteel Rust Converter and Primer 1 Litre *by S***M on 9 August 2019* I've used this for a couple of winters keeping the rust at bay on a transit van and thought I'd share my experiences.

It turns the rust black/blue and leaves an additional translucent protective layer on top. It has made the old iron plates appear rejuvenated. Friction may remove the outer protective/sealing layer over time but having witnessed the conversion of the rust underneath I think it has already done everything I wanted it to do. It goes a long way, I bought one litre and that's going to last for years. It saves a massive amount of time and effort compared to removing every trace of rust and priming and painting new (it can be effectively used as a primer layer apparently).
