FAQs

How long does it take for Jenolite Rust Converter to work?

The product typically starts working within minutes, with the rust changing color as it is converted. Allow sufficient drying time according to the instructions.

Do I need to remove all the rust before applying Jenolite?

Remove loose rust, but the product is designed to work on the remaining rust.

Can I use Jenolite Rust Converter on aluminum?

Jenolite Rust Converter is primarily designed for use on ferrous metals like steel and iron. It is not recommended for aluminum.

Do I need to prime the surface after using Jenolite?

No, the converted surface is ready to be painted with most modern paints, eliminating the need for a primer, though some users might prefer to use a primer for specific paint types.

How should I store Jenolite Rust Converter?

Store the product in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

What is the coverage of a 5-litre container?

Coverage will vary depending on the severity of the rust and the application method. However, a 5-litre container offers significant coverage for most projects.

Can I use Jenolite Rust Converter on painted surfaces?

Jenolite Rust Converter is designed to be applied directly to rust. It may damage existing paint. Remove the loose paint before application.

Troubleshooting

Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned and lightly sanded after treatment before painting. Check the paint compatibility.

The treated surface is not drying properly.

Ensure the application area is well-ventilated. Check the product expiry date.
