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.

Removes rust easily as advertised.
Would RecommendWe have an older Mexican steel bench that has rusted away the finish. Sitting on the bench would cause rust stains on clothing. This product is easy to use and did a great job of removing the rust. We can now use our bench again.

Rust IS Reformed
Would RecommendI have had great success with this Rust Reformer. Good coverage and I have had no breakthrough of rust. It’s truly ready to paint after Rust Reformer has tried. I used it on a rusted multi horseshoe coat hanger. 100% success.

Easy. Effective. Gives new life to rusty metal.
Would RecommendEven greater than "Great Stuff" (the spray foam), this product really simply works. I buy this stuff in bulk and have revived numerous things in my back yard, up to and including an old potting bench, three large bakers racks, a small greenhouse frame, innumerable topiary stakes in various shapes and sizes, and even the legs on some beautiful old mosaic tables. It truly gives new life to rusty old metal...IF you prep the surface correctly. You can't just empty a can onto a bunch of rust. You ha...
