RUST

[Anonymous 1]

I don’t know if this fits in here BUT, I have a question about rust.
If metal was well sanded down to shiny metal , BUT it had some deeper small “pits”, would the rust continue EVEN IF IT WAS COMPLETELY covered with 3 coats of oil based paint ?

[Secret Agent MGTOWParticipant 22514]

I would hit the pits with a coating of rustoleum rust inhibitor, then paint. Little extra protection.

Rust NEVER Sleeps…..My opinion, is that you can slow it down, and manage it but sooner or later It Shall Return, but depending on your needs; that may be long enough.

To address your question without knowing any of the weather/climate conditions, or any of the other conditions that this metal will be exposed to it’s hard to answer with any type of predictability.

The existing rust might come back very slowly over time if the item was placed in your home on a shelf, but would come back a whole lot quicker if the item we’re talking about is a part of your car that is exposed to all the elements, and even quicker if it’s exposed to road salts, sand, snow etc.

Thank you for your replies. The metal will be inside the house. I always thought that rust needed to have access to the air to continue to “grow”.
I guess I was wrong ?

Funny that Rust is the name of a programming language that I like, I opened this thread expecting to be about it. LOL !!!

Sandblasting usually gets it all.

They call rust Cancer for a reason. Its not paint you need, it’s something like POR-15. FLuid film does a great job at stopping rust the next best cheapest is WD-40. Basically, if there is AIR, (Oxygen,) there is rust forming. So if you want to stop it from rusting, then you have to get it all out to bare metal, and then coat with Primer after you get that surface clean or it will bubble again.

Do the JOB right, and never f~~~ with it again. Depending on the part, you can electroplate it, and that will stop the rust mostly from growing.

But if its just something you are not going to see in the house, Use FLUID FILM. THE S~~~ WORKS! My Lawnmower deck STILL LOOKS NEW on the UNDERSIDE!

You can also use vinegar to get the rest of out. Clean, and quickly prime and paint.

THis is WAY more then you need to do, but watch it. Eastwood makes GOOD STUFF man.

Once you see how the Pro’s do it, then you can use that knowledge on how to tackle your job and its good info to know.

ALso, post some pics. You might just need a quick metal prep, and some Rustomlem with rust inhibitor.

I think he said the part was in his house… Sandblasting in your house? I know we are men and all, but…. even I don’t bake all that many Car parts in my oven. 🙂

I can barely make a perfect sentence. How the HELL do you programing boys make Perfect lines of code? I’m still p~~~ed I can’t just take a CIsco router and make that thing churn without looking up how to.

Huh… well, it doesn’t sound like it’s FIXED inside the house, could be taken outside to get worked on. haha Anyway.

Agreed on the POR-15: nice, thick, highly-resistant-to-anything paint.

I’ve used my oven once in 5 years: to bake paint. Don’t do it in the winter though, smells like hell. lol

You’re not going to believe it until you see it , but check out the rust-removing LASER.

Gets into the little pits and all.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

[Anonymous 1]

Vinegar to remove rust. Huh. No s~~~ ? I never heard of that one before. Yeah, I know about Rust Oleum but I’m in Mexico and these hombres never heard of that stuff.

[Anonymous 1]

KEYMASTER, Wow ! That laser is the coolest thing I ever saw.

[SpiderHerderParticipant 3763]

Still sure it’s easier (and cheaper probably) to find sandblasters in your area than “laser” blasters. lol

Buy a Rust Converter product and apply to the area. It changes the chemical nature of the rust.It turns black and can be sanded. Prime and paint as normal.

Sorry, man, but based on my experience, this nevers works completely. Rust always comes back.

Sandblasting’s the only hardcore way.

(Don’t mean to sound like an asshole hehe)

Haha ! Especially in the “Computer, Tech, etc” section. lol

How is Rust ? Let’s say, compared to Python 3 or C ?

I’m not a programmer unfortunately (yet). My attention span is, excuse my language, f~~~ing with me often. I just can’t concentrate long enough. I have no problems with natural (human) languages though (maybe it’s one of those auditory/visual learning kind of thing).

OSPHO is locally available (TruValue, DoItBest, Ace, etc.), been around for many decades, thin like water, and pretty cheap.
OSPHO is a rust-inhibiting coating not a paint. OSPHO causes iron oxide (rust) to chemically change to iron phosphate an inert, hard substance that turns the metal black.

Of course, if a bench grinder is available, with a wire brush wheel, and the part is of a size/shape that can be introduced to the setup…it’s a virtually unmatched rust destroyer (if sandblasting is not an option).

Exactly !!

Faster than python 2 and 3, but I didn’t test against a python executable compiled with the graalvm.
Almost fast as C, but far more safe since it prevent a lot of s~~~ by design.

If you can soak the metal and are a cheap f~~~er like me, soak the metal part in vinegar with table salt added. At least 4 – 5 days. Then put the part in a solution of baking soda and water to wash off the acid. Once done, use denatured alcohol to wipe down the part, gets oils and any water out. Then primer and paint. Should be good as long as the paint is not compromised.
