The surprise was that the consistency was so different from that of the Jenolite liquid (p58), because it was far more clinging and waxy. The performance was exceptional, too, with the least corrosion showing on our sample. It’s not cheap, but it’s also far from expensive. Remote areas/Scottish Highlands and non-UK Mainland areas may be subject to additional charges and a longer delivery time. This is determined by our couriers not Rustbuster. Any celebrations at Jenolite HQ about its Best Buy award for the spray will be tempered by the performance of the liquid. here is the rusty metal that I will be painting today. I have wire brushed it and cleaned it as instructed by Hammerite themselves.The first thing you need to do is pour some Kurust into a separate tub. You don’t want to put your brush in and out of the tub as any rust particles on your brush could end up ruining the entire tub. Clean the surface by removing all loose paint, rust, dirt, grease and salt. Then rinse with water and let the surface dry. Hammerite has a reputation for easy-to-use rust-beating products, and the Kurust shows why. We were dubious at first because the liquid was watery when applied and seemed to want to bead off the surface rather than soak in, but after 15 minutes our sample had turned dark blue and allowed us to apply another coat. This gave impressive protection, matching the Bilt-Hamber. Hammerite Kurust transforms rust to a clean surface in 15 minutes. Ideal for small areas of rust, stone chips and scratches. There are numerous types of these potions on the market, and they all claim to be the best, so we tested a selection of products to see which you should trust to sort your rust. How we tested them

It can be applied by brush to surfaces includingBBQs, fire surrounds, garage doors, metal doors, metal garden furniture, metal gates, metal railings and radiators with no primer or undercoat needed. This stuff is really watery so be careful not to splash it everywhere when painting it on. Starting to paint the kurust on Now it starts reacting The fluid didn’t seem to penetrate and bond into the metal, appearing to film a skin over the top of the rust instead. This meant its protection performance was poor, especially on the painted surface. It was the only sample that showed signs of actual paint flaking by the end of the test. By brush: apply directly to the rusty area, working well into heavily pitted areas, corners and edges. Hammerite Kurust is a special paint used to transform rust to a clean, paintable surface in 15 minutes.Rust or corrosion damages metal surfaces and leave dirty, brown spots. Hammerite helps you get rid of rust and revive your metal objects. Follow the guide below if you want to know how to remove rust with Hammerite Kurust: One side of the steel sample was left unpainted while the other was sprayed with a single coat of primer and acrylic top coat, replicating a typical DIY repair. Once dry, the samples were then doused daily in salty water for four weeks to encourage any corrosion to reappear. We then scored them on ease of use, rust-resisting performance and price. Verdict

Kurust - 250ml - Wilco Direct

The milky fluid from the Rustins jar was certainly easy enough to apply, although it seemed to sit on our rust rather than soaking in, and took far longer than the others to cure into a paintable surface. Clean surface by removing all loose paint and rust, dirt, grease and salt. Rinse with clean water and allow time to dry We left sections of 1mm unpainted mild steel to gently corrode outside over the course of several months, then let them thoroughly dry before treating both sides with our products, carefully following the instructions. here’s my bottle of Kurust waiting to be used. The instructions from Hammerite state the following:

Features:

Even on the bodywork a stone chip or scratch can soon grow into a nasty blister, and you need to treat rust properly to stop it spreading. Rust removal involves spending hours with a wire brush or strong acidic chemicals that are dangerous to use, so it is far easier and safer to use a rust converter. These stop reaction in the metal using special ingredients, which neutralise the corrosion and allow you to paint over it. Special precautions should be taken to avoid inhalation of dust during surface preparation of pre-1960’s paint surfaces as they may contain harmful lead. Caution

Transforms rust to a sound surface in 15 minutes. Ideal for small areas of rust, stone chips and scratches. Kurust rust paint is available in a 250ml bottle. It’s third because of its relatively poor value, but the smaller bottle could make sense if you have only a small area to treat. It was the first sample to show rust reappearing, and by the end of the test period the protection had almost completely disappeared from the unpainted side, and was starting to reappear on the other face too. Although cheap, the bottle is tiny at just 90ml, so it also represents poor value. Wood by name, wood by nature.

Inside The Kurust Bottle If you are getting underneath a car, make sure you use axle stands or ramps and wear eye protection and a mask. Any areas that are holed will need welding, so don’t waste your time with treatment, but surface rust should be rubbed with a wire brush and then painted with a converter. If you are treating a rust bubble on the bodywork, you will want to remove as much of the rust as possible before treating or it will soon reappear under any filler and top coat. HI Sam Hope you are well How did this test turn out ? I have just bought an aerosol of Jenolite rust converter and 2 bottles of Kurust (250ml) It’s not often we say we’re disappointed with a product and still give it a recommended award, but Bilt-Hamber products normally excel. That’s why we were a little underwhelmed that the Hydrate-80 didn’t come out as the top performer here.
