1. For best results immerse items

Pour the required amount into a plastic container and completely immerse items where possible. For larger items where immersion isn’t possible, soak high quality paper towels and apply to the surface to be treated. Once applied, to stop the towels from drying out, cover with plastic sheeting.

2. Leave to soak

For the best results, check the progress periodically, brushing/agitating the surface with a wire brush if necessary. For the best results leave the items to soak for 24 hours.

3. Ready to prime

Once the items are removed from the rust remover, wipe dry with a clean cloth and leave for 30 minutes before priming or painting.

Unlike other Jenolite products, the NON-HAZARDOUS rust remover is reusable and can be used again for future applications.
