Hi, would this be suitable for use on car suspension components, and the entire underbody of the car? I'm thinking of the following method: 1) a wire brush over the suspension parts/underbody 2) sandpaper 3) Rust-Oleum Pre-Paint Cleaner (is this suitable? 4) Flag Rust Converter Aiming to sort my rust problem out Thanks
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Assuming you have suitably prepared the areas to be treated in accordance with the techncial datasheet, wire brushing any areas of rust that are flaking/peeling to a minimum st2 standard and wiping the surface down with a damp cloth, this product will be fine for applciation.
We wouldn't recommend applying Rust-Oleum Pre-Paint Cleaner as this may be uncompatible with Flag Rust Convertor due to lack of testing.

Question:
Does the rust converter have shelf life, use by period, once can is opened?
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
This product doesn't have a confirmed shelf-life.
Once opened, if stored in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and can still be stirred it is fine to use.

Question:
Will your rust converter stick to sound painted surfaces adjacent to the rusted area?
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
No, this is a treatment for application to bare rusted metals, it should not be applied to areas of paint.

Question:
Is this product suitable for use on underwater areas of a narrowboat prior to overcoating with a bitumen based product.
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
The Flag Rust Converter will be fine to use on a substrate that will be eventually underwater, but the manufacturer have not tested it with a bitumen based product over the top.
We would recommend testing for compatibility and adhesion prior to full application.

Question:
Would this rust converter be suitable for treating an internal steel narrowboat drinking water tank?
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
No, this can be used to convert rust, but as this is a drinking water tank any suitable paint system we stock for this application would require the tank to be blasted prior to application which would make this process redundant.
