What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this rust converter for its exceptional ability to transform rust into a stable black protective layer without sanding or stripping. Reviewers consistently highlight how it "coats the rust and you can paint over it," eliminating extensive surface prep on truck frames, trailers, lawn chairs, and garden tools. The application is praised as easy and smooth-spraying with fast drying times, often requiring just one coat before topcoating. Many report long-lasting results, with treated surfaces remaining rust-free for weeks or longer. A few note the clear version underperforms compared to black, and some mention pricing concerns, but nearly all customers consider it highly effective and worthwhile.

Spray was not consistent

Would Not Recommend

Not sure if the nozzle was damaged or not, but when I went to spray, the paint was not consistent. It lobbed out, sprayed fine, sprayed heavy and leaked all over the place. There was no consistency at all to the spray pattern. In fact it actually dribbled out of the sprayer also, and paint completely covered the can and onto the floor.

Turns rust into black metal. Not sure how long it will last, but it seems good. I have used other brands before, and this one seems just as good.

Works great, Easy to use

Would Recommend

This spray works great on outdoor patio furniture. Covers well and looks really nice. Don’t coat too thick or it will run. You will probably need to do 2-3 coats and you need to wait a while between coats. It would be nice if it was more quick drying but overall I’m very happy with it.
