Rust treatment

Post by KRIS »

I am going to rust treat the floor of my van. The whole of the floor and the upper section around the engine 'lid/hatch'. I will be wire brushing it all but want to treat it all for the bits that still have some surface rust. I could do with something that I could brush on. The smaller bottles of KURUST and LOCTITE RUST REMEDY would be so expensive. Anybody know of something which could do the job but not as expensive please? As many different opinions as can be would be most welcome. And I do know about Vactan. By the way: Stay safe everyone, a short few weeks in isolation is better than many years grieving.

Some good options here:

HYDRATE 80 to treat the rust and then ELECTROX as a primer.

Yes I second Fugeh, I've had good results with Hydrate 80 and the price is OK.

Yes be safe everyone,
a spend now will save a lot of grief later!

Ordered a Bilt Hamber Dynax S-50 with the cavity nozzle,
it was very satisfying to use today. £20 well spent.

it comes with the aerosol can, if you order one.
can also get them without, cheaper.
nice to use too as bendy pipe means can is vertical.

forgot to say I also used the Dinitrol version of Hydrate 80,
probably the same stuff, Converust 800.
