Hi guys my mate was telling me the other day that you can buy rust converter. Is there such thing as rust converter? Has anyone used this before and does anyone have any suggestions about this? im more wanting it just as an extra protection.
Cheers

It can be bought at any Auto store, is more for stopping existing rust from continuing. I was sceptical at first but it does work.

wicked thanks mate. might give it a try

rust remover is better than convertor. The 3M product sucks balls pls dont waste your
money on this scum company that uses less phosphoric acid than the others.
At best would be to buy the industrial phosphoric acid its supposedly awesome.
Anything under 34% phosphoric acid is not worth it.
Some people recommend Naval Gelly in several applications. Ive found letting the
solution sit till it turns black then scrubbing it again with fresh solution with
a small wire brush or sand paper and watch the rust separate from the metal and
dissolve away.

wow thankyou very much mate will take all that into consideration before i purchase. :)

I use K&H rust converter found at autobarn, it seems stronger than the stuff I've found at supercheap. POR15 stomps on everything though if you have the money.

Cheers mate will give them a try and may even have a look into the POR15 much appreciated :)

hi, where do you want to use this? different prob can have different selutions. It depents on the amount of rust currently visible. I would hate to c a bud run throu the same prob and expensis I did. If you have little or no knowledge in this area, people will tend to cell you crap if you dont know better. Very good thing you get info!!

i like the emertan stuff or even rainex is good.
i have heard of the POR stuff but not used it myself.

+1 for what D said except the sucking balls bit. Also depends on what level of rust you have. On my ute, I had bits flacking off so I cut and welded new sections. In other areas I had surface rust with pitting which I kept applying rust remover and scrub till it all comes out. .
