Extreme Green Rust Converter is a water-based metal treatment that penetrates rusted surfaces, converting the rust to an organic matrix that can be safely painted, coated, galvanised or chromed without fear of rust re-appearing beneath the coating.
Extreme Green Rust Converter treats rust in pipelines and storage tanks and on vehicles and equipment.
Extreme Green Rust Converter is ideal for treating reinforcing steel used in construction and for protecting plates, pipes, flanges, joints and structural members before installation.
It is widely used on farms to protect metal sheds and buildings, to treat corrugated iron roofs and irrigation equipment.
Ideal for use anywhere where you need to treat rust and paint over it .
Chemically combines with rust to form a tough organic matrix that bonds to the metal surface, inhibiting further corrosion.
The organic matrix formed by Extreme Green Rust Converter is a stable, non-flammable compound.
Metals treated with Extreme Green Rust Converter can be cut and welded without hazard to the operator.
Extreme Green Rust Converter works exceptionally well on heavily rusted surfaces that are impractical to treat by conventional methods or in inaccessible locations.
Extreme Green Rust Converter is safe for users as it does not contain any mineral acids, phosphates or solvents.
Extreme Green Rust Converter is a practical alternative to shotblasting and sanding techniques as it does not strip metal surfaces.
Remove loose rust and paint with a wire brush. Immediately before applying Extreme Green Rust Converter, use a high pressure water spray to remove surface contamination including chemicals, salt, oil, and grease.
Allow any surplus water to drain.
Envirosafe Solutions recommend diluting Extreme Green Rust Converter at a maximum rate of three parts Extreme Green Rust Converter to one part water. However, some users report successful results diluting Extreme Green Rust Converter with an equal volume of water.
For best results, only dilute with clean potable water.
Apply Extreme Green Rust Converter using a brush, roller, spray or dip tank.
Surfaces treated with Extreme Green Rust Converter are fully converted when the surface turns blue/black – usually 6 to 24 hours after application.
Wash treated surfaces with water and allow to dry thoroughly before painting, coating or applying galvanised or chrome finishes.
1) Apply Extreme Green Rust Converter diluted with an equal volume of water to the prepared surface.
2) After 30 – 60 minutes apply a second coat of undiluted Extreme Green Rust Converter and wait 12 – 24 hours for curing.
