• Product converts rust into a paintable surface

    Feb. 12, 2014

    PlastiKote is offering a rust converter product that turns rust-coated surfaces into paintable surfaces.

    “PlastiKote rust converter is the preferred choice for treating rust spots on vehicles so they are in perfect condition for painting,” said Katie Whiting, product manager, aerosols for Valspar. “With PlastiKote rust converter, there is no bubbling or foaming when applying and users are stopping the rust from spreading or bleeding through the top coat.”

    According to the company, users should sand the surface they want to paint before applying PlastiKote rust converter for a smooth end result. Once applied, PlastiKote rust converter organically converts rust to an iron-hard paintable surface.

    It is available in both eight and 16-ounce bottles.
