What Customers Are Saying
The Loctite Rust Neutralizer is a mixed-performance product. It effectively neutralizes and removes light to moderate rust, leaving a smooth, paintable surface. However, it may not fully address heavy or deeply embedded rust. The product is easy to use, dries quickly, and can stop rust from spreading. But some customers reported issues with the spray can functionality, such as clogging or premature loss of propellant. For best results, users should follow the instructions closely and apply multiple coats if needed, while also using an oil-based topcoat paint.

Would RecommendWorks as expected. Used on some rust on a utility trailer. Wire brushed area, cleaned with solvent, then sprayed. So far looks good after paint over. Only time will tell if any rust returns.

Not nearly as good as previous liquid
Would Not RecommendDoes not react and turn rust black like liquid version. Can't find old liquid product anymore. This spray version is very poor and not recommended.

Spittled and leaked, lost propellant.
Would Not RecommendThe can seemed to be defective. It only put out a spray about 4-5 inches with a constant stream running down the side of the can. It leaked so much, I couldn't hold the can with one hand because it became so slippery. I persevered trying to finish the job when it ran out of propellant. Will try a different brand tomorrow.

Paint Over Rust
Would RecommendProduct works as advertised: spray it on and wait a 15 minutes. Spray it again and wait overnight before painting with your choice of oil-based paints (most spray paints/paints made for metal are oil-based). Chemically changes rust to a stable form, ready-to-paint.

Rust Gone!
Would RecommendUsed it for rust spots on '91 MBSDL, as well as on bathroom/powder room rusted hot water heating vent covers. Did an exceptional job; left metal ready to prime and paint! A money and time saver.

Works pretty well!
Would RecommendI bought a can of this stuff to try and neutralize the rust on the inside of a grill I was restoring so that it would be a little more protected than just bare metal. I used 4 or 5 coats overall, and I'd say the final result was very acceptable given what it was!
