Product Description
Corroseal® is a water based rust converter combined with an
unpigmented, high quality, latex paint primer. The converting agent turns rust
into a barrier layer of black, non-rusting magnetite, plus other inert
substances. The primer acts as a bonding agent for oil-based epoxy, enamel,
acrylic and urethane. Corroseal® is recommended for
use on steel surfaces as a rust converter/paint primer. Corroseal®
protects against future rusting and can be used on welds. It eliminates the need
to mechanically blast the steel to white metal, and is designed for use on water
blasted surfaces that re-rust. Contains no chemical listed in EPA 40 CFR Cp1,
Part 433. Non-flammable, non-corrosive. Federal DOT shipping class 55 No
Restrictions. Corroseal® Data Sheet
Architectural Applications
Corroseal®is ideal for such diverse projects as roof restoration,
propane tanks, vehicles, ship holds, hatches and decks, storage tanks, garden
gates, patio furniture, window frames, farm equipment, gas pipelines, fuel
tanks, and storage containers.

Application Procedures
Apply a final stage
cleaner according to manufacturer's directions. Remove salt, loose rust,
millscale, dirt, grease, oil, old flaking paint and other deposits. A residue
free surface is essential before coating application begins. Brush, roll or
spray undiluted Corroseal® in a heavy white coat
with no surface show-through at 8-10 mils (200-250 micron) wet film thickness.
When black color appears, rust conversion has started. Refer to color chart for
complete application analysis. Wait at least 24 hours to topcoat. Apply top
coats aftea r 24 hour cure or wait up to 30 days to allow for weather.
Corroseal® Application Guide
Coverage
1 gallon of Corroseal®
covers approximately 200 sq. ft. in a 10 mil coat (200-250 microns) to produce
a 2.5-3 mil DFT to cover anchor profiles for estimating purposes. Converts heavy
rust over 20-30 mils deep. Two (2) coats will convert up to 150 mils of rust.
Actual surface conditions and thickness of rust will dictate the amount of
Corroseal® needed. Heavy rust depths require a
longer cure to 48 hours before overcoating.
Limitations
Keep from freezing. Apply at
temperatures above 45°F and below 100°F. Do not thin. Wait 24 hours
before topcoating. Do not use with zinc chromate or zinc phosphates, galvanized
surfaces including nails, galvanized corrugated sheet or pipe; chromates, copper
powder, magnesium borate, graphite and/or lead pigments. Do not use in direct
contact with food. Test for tannin staining before application of water-based
topcoating. Corroseal® must be topcoated for
satisfactory marine or industrial service life and exposure to weather.
Corroseal Tech
Data
Corroseal® has ten superior features:
1. It takes 1/3 the power tool preparation time
compared to conventional metal primers.
2. It protects against future rusting. Lasts as long as as
the topcoat.
3. Eliminates the need to sand blast the
surface.
4. Surface preparation may be done at one time or spread
over several weeks.
5. Works with nearly all conventional industrial top coats.
6. Easy cleanup with soap and water.
7. Pleasant odor.
8. Non-flammable.
9. Non-toxic.
10.
Non-corrosive.
