Available Options

EcoSafe Strip Rust Converter & Inhibitor is a water-based, biodegradable rust removal compound that cleans and prepares metal surfaces for recoating. It safely removes heavy rust and prevents further corrosion, offering a safer, environmentally responsible alternative to traditional harsh chemical rust removers.

This advanced formula is designed to remove all types of rust, from light surface oxidation to deep-seated corrosion. Once applied, it quickly breaks down rust without producing toxic fumes or hazardous residues. Best of all, it is non-flammable and contains no toxic air pollutants (TAPs or HAPs), making it safe to use in sensitive environments.

After rinsing with water, the surface is left clean and ready for a new coating. If left to air dry, EcoSafe Strip Rust Converter & Inhibitor will also help protect the metal from re-rusting over time. Additionally, it has been tested to ensure it does not compromise coating adhesion under standard pull tests.

Thanks to its easy application and cleanup, this product reduces both labour time and overall project costs, while still achieving high-quality results.

Benefits

EcoSafe Strip Rust Converter & Inhibitor has proven to be effective in removing all types of rust, whether light surface rust or deep-seated blooms.

The results produced with EcoSafe Strip Rust Converter & Inhibitor are the same as those achieved by the harsh and dangerous chemicals presently used by industry.

Water rinsing quickly removes the residue, and the surface is ready for a new coating.

New coatings exhibited no reduction of adhesion under standard adhesion pull tests.

If allowed to air dry, the product will protect the surface from re-rusting for extended periods.

Application

Apply with a brush, roller or rag for small areas. A small hand pump, weed sprayer or conventional spray equipment can produce a finely atomised spray for larger areas.

Preparation

  • Ensure that all areas to be left uncleaned are suitably protected.
  • The product should not be diluted and must not be mixed before application.
  • The surface may be washed and cleaned before application; however, it should be dry before applying EcoSafe Strip Rust Converter.
  • For extremely rusty surfaces, it is necessary to wire brush the surface before treatment.

Dwell Time

The time required to remove rust depends on the type of rust and its penetration depth.

  • Most rust will be cleaned within 10 to 15 minutes.
  • For extremely rusty surfaces, it is also effective to place a rag on the surface and saturate it with the rust converter. Check the surface at 30-minute intervals to ensure rust has been converted.

Coverage

Depending on the substrate, the coverage rate for EcoSafe Strip Rust Converter typically ranges from 8 to 10 sq. m. per Litre.

Re-Coating

EcoSafe Strip Rust Converter & Inhibitor will inhibit rust for approximately 3 months; therefore, recoating is recommended as rust may recur.
