quick vactan question

Post by steveo3002 »

ive bought some vactan in the hopes of slowing up a nasty patch of rust

the site doesnt seem to mention how long to wait before further coats of primer /paint

can anyone advise?

I'd leave it at least a day before overpainting.

cheers for that...

how about thickness of it...i know the site mentions how many microns but i cant measure that

just a normal coat scrubbed into the pits okay? or heave it on heavy as i can?

I ve found it works for me after removing scale a vigorous brush on the rust to get any pinholes etc but clean it off good paintwork straight away as its a bugger to get off paint (or skin) when dry :|
