RustStop™ RX100™ can be applied onto already painted surfaces, new steel surfaces, and, even rusted surfaces. Once applied, RustStop™ RX100™ goes to work immediately. Firstly - it penetrates into every microscopic crack and crevice of the metal expelling any traces of moisture or oxygen. Secondly - as it dries, it completely seals the surface, thus preventing the moisture carrying oxygen from entering and also bonds with the metal. Put simply, RustStop™ RX100™ suffocates the metal/rust – thus preventing the substrate from breathing.Once cured (up to 48 hours), RustStop™ RX100™ will dry to a flexible, water repellent, non-conducting, long-lasting coat that is capable of handling very high heat. (300 deg C) RustStop™ RX100™ is a non-toxic, non-flammable, solid-state coating, that does not crack or peel. RustStop™ RX100™ dries to a transparent coat; therefore visual inspection of equipment and surfaces is not impaired.When applied as directed, a two-coat treatment of RustStop™ RX100™ will provide long-term rust protection under the harshest conditions.
