Full Version: Stoping the Evil Iron-Oxide....

Hey all..

Although I have a VERY clean car, it still has a couple little areas of surface rust that I want to stop before they become a problem. I've been researching ways of doing this without going for a bare metal grind and re-spray, and came across the following....

The Rust Doctor is a liquid that you actually paint on the rusted surface, and it converts the rust to an inert form of Iron-oxide called magnetite (??) THIS ONE EVEN HAS A PORSCHE 914 RESTORATION AS A REFERENCE!!!!!!

POR-15 is similar but seems to work slightly differently.

Has anyone had any experience with these, and if so what is your opinion?

Just wondering before I go overboard with something that is complete crap..

Thanks guys..

Later

rustmort is a good product. you will have to epoxy prime and paint over it - por15 i wasnt fond of although alot of people like it. por15 is a 1 step deal, its not necessary to paint over it. ive also used rustoleum - seemed to work fine - thats is more of a primer type paint. wire brush off as much of the rust as u can before applying any of these. im going the rustmort way and then expoxy primer and paint for the small areas i need to address. im sure some of the body shop guys could advise you much better than i can.

POR 15 is actually a 3 step process. It works really well, if you follow the directions.

And a top coat is needed if the POR 15 is in direct sunlight...

por-15 is the shizznit... the best I've seen!

but if you want a cheap product for a simple job (something that doesn't get wet) you can use KILZ as a rust stopping/preventive.. it's a 1 step..
