Rust-Oleum 215215 Stops Rust Rust Reformer Spray, 10.25 oz, Black

Rust-Oleum 215215 Stops Rust Rust Reformer Spray, 10.25 oz, Black

Q: Can I use it to spray over rust without another coat? The original color is matt black, kinda like chalk paint.

Yes BUT, it will NOT convert the rust. It will only cover it up and the rust will come back. There are products on the market that convert the rust into a hard black substance that will never rust again but this is not one of them by a long shot. Any flat black paint will do the same as this product will.

Q: Will this stop the rust from spreading to different areas?

Yes, If applied correctly it will "kill" the rust, thereby stop the spreading of rust. It will NOT stop other, surrounding, areas from rusting. Only properly treated areas will have protected, rust free metal. Top coating with a quality paint is essential.

Q: Can I apply this product if its not rusting yet? I bought a exhaust system for my car & I wanna spray the welds to keep from rusting, will this work?

It should work better than using the product after the rust starts. It's more of a heavy primer than a rust reformer (in my experience). However, you might want to look at Rust-Oleum's high temperature spray paints. Some of them are made specifically for automotive use.

Q: Is this also a primer? And can touchup paint be used on top of this? I had a small dent in my car and I removed the rust with coke. Do I still need this or should I get a primer instead?

I would only use as primer on rusty metal surface. I would still use this on the auto dent to get any possible remaining rust. It turns rust in to a hard protective surface, then just paint over. It goes on milky green but turns dark brown when dried.

Rust-Oleum 7830730 Stops Rust Rust Reformer

This is a brush on liquid that I use in small areas that I don’t want to take the time to mask to use the aerosol. Has the consistency of 2% milk so it’ll run downhill. Useful but it would take nearly a lifetime to use this whole container for what I use it for. Good product. Just better if offered in a smaller amount.

Will purchase again if needed.

We have purchased three times for various projects. GREAT price, quality and turnaround time. The paint is a nice matted, thick coverage. We have used this on our patio furniture and it stands up to all the elements.

Great coverage

Husband uses this stuff all the time. He does not complain about it, which simply means, it works!! Clear color and coverage. Spray is consistent. Great quality. Typical smell, not any stronger or less in smell. Use it on vehicles, anything that might rust.

Nice Product But Not Miraculous

I used this paint on some vintage metal deck chairs I refinished. It covered well and was easy to apply. For two large-sized metal chairs, it took about 3 cans for full coverage. I gave them a light sanding and cleaned of any rusty spots that I could access. I was hoping the rust-busting properties would help keep the areas that are harder to access with tools/sandpaper from rusting agin, but when I pulled them out this year, I saw that those areas did have some light rust on them again. Luckily, they are not where people will sit on the chairs and it should not affect their clothing. For such a long job, I did buy the trigger that fits onto the top of the can and it made a huge difference in hand fatigue. I'm pleased with how they turned out, but wish that the formula really did stop rust in those problem areas. They cleaned up nicely when bringing them out of storage.

Easier than the jelly

I was so glad to see this in a spray form. I had several small spots of rust on my above ground pool. Wasn't looking forward to going around with a little brush and navel jelly. This was so quick and easy.
