Corroseal Rust Converter Testing

I haven’t been impressed with Corroseal either. Try this same test with Rustoleum rusty metal primer.

Needs to be alot thicker and cure alot longer ,I coating my whole truck frame with it and it worked great and has lasted 2 years

Vht rust converter. Only way to go. Then paint. Then cosmoline. Shuts it down completely and for good.

Why roku remote control there? Lol

Rust never sleep

awesome topic!

Thank you for taking the time to do this review. Certainly saved me a lot of time.

The right way to apply this product is to place it in the hopper and grab your sand blaster

I think your experiment is not a good example you did not have enough rust on there to be converted so when it got exposed to the element the parts that was unrusted and untreated I should say unconverted was exposed that's what you have you didn't you hit not enough rust to be converted that's why I failed

I have used Corroseal for so many projects... everything from rusty door hinges, wheelbarrows, outdoor furniture, fencing, and of course automotive applications. It is the MOST AMAZING PRODUCT I have ever used. I spent $16 on a 32oz bottle about 10 years ago & I still have about 12oz left!!!! IMPORTANT TIP: DO NOT STORE anywhere that will get HOT, like a GARAGE or SHED. The material at the bottom of the bottle will rubberize & you will lose product.

Can this be used on high temperatures like the exhaust pipe under the car??

Also the half with corroseal had the most rust so just the painted spot looking better wasn't as rusty.

You should go back and treat the rusty side with Ospho. A rust inhibitor, then paint.

I think you have to remove the rust first with steel brush then apply the rust converter...

Straight no-nonsense video. Thanks for uploading - useful.

I am seeing something that looks exactly like this called "FractionK" and I came on here to find a review for it. (it seems to go on white-ish then turns black, just like corroseal.

Does it actually remove the rust or just colored it and cover it?

The area that has some discolor is the area he technically never applied a 2nd coat.... The 1st coat never got to dry then he just spread oxidizing rust mixer around and never used more than 1 brush worth on the 2nd coat when he used 5 on the 1st.....

Looks like rayhog water based paint ?

What i've learned after countless videos, opinions & "experts" is:
rust is like taxes & death- sooner or later, it's going to get you. 🥺

Who sells it

Darn great video.. DARN Great video!!

Nice video, man! Seems like it's very similar to Rust-Oleum rustwandler, which has been working great for me in Denmark, Scandinavia, where it's VERY humid and the roads are salted every winter. But as you mention in your update, I too found out, that it's imperative to let the stuff cure at least overnight, before you apply more coats of it or paint. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. :)

That wheel was barely rusted. You could have removed that with a wire brush easily. You need to show it on really rusty metal.

Good video. Thanks for the info.

I think this test means nothing. Before applying rust converter you should have cleaned the loose rust with a wire wheel. Make all as clean as much with it, degrease it and then apply rust converter. I will bet this time it will prevent rust much better

If you look at the video of the before, you will see that the half that rushed through the paint was much rustier than the other side. Not really a fair comparison test. Should have turned the wheel 90 degrees and split the rust instead of leaving the right that was worse and coating it only.

Coroseal has done a great job for years on my projects...Wire wheel the LOOSE stuff. That is why this video did NOT show accurate results

Rust never sleeps…

The directions say to remove all the rust you can.. it really is funny though, for best results it shouldnt have anything but clean metal. Lmao no sh*t. But I think atleast removal of as much as possible and it being cleaned would yield better results. I gave the like because I was very curious in how it would work without the extra work. So thanks.

Nothing fancy... just a rim job

Where can I buy it from

can I use it on an exhaust pipe on a motorcycle or do it get to hot

Update

It works better if you apply coats until you don't see any more rust after curing. This may take several coats beyond the instructions. Then paint with oil based rust inhibiting enamel. That should do the trick.
