    • Garthman03 5:05 am on January 19, 2011 Permalink

      Point or order.. good idea to feather edge the sand scratches around the outside before applying filler, just in case you go a little too far a fluck up your filler work..

    • lucasmorter 6:55 am on January 19, 2011 Permalink

      @ladedk yeah but just so everyone knows a paper dust mask like that does not protect you against the paint fumes while painting you need to wear a respirator with an organic vapor filter and the masks these guys are wearing only keep dust out

    • llaracuente 8:35 am on January 19, 2011 Permalink

      as faR as primer , use a primer filler then use black primer very lightly as a guide coat to find hard to see scratches, sand that with 500or 600g 500 is better,

    • llaracuente 9:10 am on January 19, 2011 Permalink

      sand body filler with 40 grit once straight, sand with 80 to make it smooth, hit it up with polyester putty sand with 100g smooth it with 180, also feather edge old paint and primer with 180g

    • WranglerYJ91 10:01 am on January 19, 2011 Permalink

      Pretty good except i learned from exp. to work the grinded edge with 80 grit and let your putty run over edge to fill in deep grinding marks. Always come behind 80 grit with 180 grit before you prime. If not the primer will shrink and sand scratches will show in matter of days. especcially laquer primer. best to let primer dry 24 hrs. before sanding to help avoid shrinkage. Not saying im a know it all just cant sleep seeing how others do mudd work lol

    Car Rust Prevention

    Cars are now a days very dear. Even a few of them cost far more than the income of an average Yank. Most US people buy car on car loan scheme. They must pay the cash in installments for 60 or 72 months.


    Since we are paying heavy amount for the car then its our duty to guard them so long as possible. Foremost problem that the vehicle suffers is the problem of rust. Either you’ve got to stop it or use rust products to get rid of rust from the body of the car.


    If you say in medical terms then you can say that rust is like cancer for the auto. It becomes worst when gets started and slowly spreads to entire body. The body of the automobile is created of metal sheet and everyone knows that metals are susceptible to get rusted. Rust is seen in areas like intense weather, moisture or road side salt used in winter climate.


    There are various methods to have treatment against rust and it can be cured if correct care is taken.


    Though the car sheet metal is covered with thin coat of primer paint but this isn’t really enough. Roadside dust, waste or even hail is enough to damage this thin coat. Then moisture, salt of the atmosphere will come in communication with the Naked part of the metal body. Oxidation of the metal will start. This chemical reaction on the metal is sometimes known as rust. In Chemistry rust is nothing less than simply loss of electron for which the metal gets feeble which helps more in rusting. You may also experience rust if you have cheap convertible tops on your car.


    It is always advocated that you need to clean and wax the vehicle in each 2 week. Look for the scratches, nicks and dings which caused some exposed part in the body of the paint. Cover these exposed parts and seal them so that moisture can’t come in touch with the metal body. Selected the best suitable touch up paint which matches your auto color and use it over the areas affected. As first-aid you may use nail polish. Car Rust Prevention


    most vital thing is for rust treatments always go to a car dealer. The way they’re going to give treatment to the car rust is not akin with the way you’ll treat the automobile rust at home. Their treatment will always be better. They can offer you the best color matches with the vehicle color. So that the exact paint will again give the auto new look.

    Car Rust Treatment Required For Preventing Rust

    Normally a car in US cost around ,000 and usually you have to pay 0 as monthly installment for 6 long years. Now with taxes, fees and insurance the installment rate goes to almost that of what we have to pay for mortgage payment. Though you are paying so much money in your car still many people don’t care proper care for the car. Proper maintenance of the car is highly necessary to increase the longevity of these major investments.

    If people neglect their cars then there is hardly anything that can prevent the car from getting rusted with the help of car rust removal products.

    Rust is a very common problem and each and everybody hate rust. But most surprising hardly people take any step to prevent it.

    Research shows that rust is common in the areas where the proportion of salt, salty ocean air is common. The places with high humidity are susceptible to rust. Basically rust is very common in the industrial areas.

    Though the metal in the car contain a protection with thin primer and painting still the metal comes in contact with salt and water at regular interval. These two, salt and water do harm and weaken the car finish as it help in losing electron of the metal. Thus the rust starts and soon erodes the metal.

    So we can see that paint is an important part in protection against rust. If proper care is taken for every two months then this paint can be strengthen. This will definitely reduce the occurrence of the rust. Regular cleaning will prevent the salt to get accumulated in the car’s body. Cars polish and Car wax will act as a lubricant which not will give car a new look but also prevent the car from getting rusted. These lubricants seal the surface from collecting the moisture. For maximum protection use 2 – 3 times at a single cleaning. People who have introduce the car wax or car polish in their regular car cleaning routine face much less problem with rust.

    Even if you see a small scratch in the car paint, don’t neglect it. Immediately take action. You should paint that part immediately. Bare body is much prone for rusting so a proper care should be taken by buying a 1 oz. bottle of same color and applying the paint in the exact effected area with small brush or tooth pick. Properly cover the entire effected area. Remember always buy same matching color for the car color paint. It acts as car rust treatment as the color will prevent the moisture and salt from accumulating. Like a first aid you can also use nail polish for time being. It will give protection for someday. But it is better if we use car color paint. Always remove the rusted part with the sandpaper. Never use color over the rusted portion.

    So we can see that if little maintenance with is done with wax or polish then we can easily protect car from rust.

    What is the Best Rust Treatment?

    Rust is a big problem for any house in wet weather. You can try every possible way but it is almost impossible to keep your home rust free. And the best solution is to clean up rust as early as possible.

    And it is not about metal items alone – rusts can pile up in concrete foundations, patios or even in sidewalks. And if you have light colors in the wall (that we normally have in outdoors), rust looks awfully bad and an eyesore. A small patch of rust is enough to kill the beauty of your home.

    The problem is high in those areas where water pipes run beside concrete walls. And if you use well water to spray in the garden, there are high probabilities that concrete in the surrounding areas or metal items will gather rust in no time. In these situations the best thing you can do is to be careful while spraying water in the garden and use a good quality spray nozzle to be careful. But if once things start getting rusts, it normally comes back unless you remove the water source completely from the rusted metal or concrete.

    But what would you do to keep the place clean and rust free?

    People have different methods and apply different solutions to remove rust from metal particles and concrete walls. Here are some of the most common ways for rust treatment:

    The most common first step is to brush out remaining paint from the rusted surface and surrounding area. You can use some good quality wire brush to clean the place. When the place is clean from rusts, you can use some good quality metal primer and rust resistant paint on the top. This is a good solution to keep your metal furniture away from rust for a long time. You can redo the process whenever there is some rust in metal items or concrete walls.

    Some people would try lemon juice to keep the concrete wall or metal furniture free from rusts. They take it as a natural solution to rust problems. In this situation all you need to do is to apply some lemon juice on the rusted area and leave them as it is for half an hour depending on the quality and condition of rusted area. Later on, you would need to scrub the rusted area with a good quality brush and wash out the rust with enough water. However, in some cases, lemon juice makes the wall discolored or leaves some stains behind no matter how well you rinse the place. This method is handy but not effective for all occasions and for all surfaces.

    Some people even recommend vinegar to clean rust stain from concrete wall or metal items. It follows the same process as lemon juice.

    However, most widely used solution is that of using rust removal solutions to clean rust easily and effectively. They are easy to apply and you do not need to scrub the place for proper rust treatment. These are cheap and you can use them in any surface. However, if you want to use these rust removal solutions, try to find out an organic one. The organic solutions are non acidic and does not harm the surroundings. For example if you use acid based cleaners (both lemon and vinegar are acid based cleaners) they may harm plants in the adjacent areas or may react with the metal and leave a lasting stain on them.

    So which rust products are you using next time to clean rust from metal furniture or concrete wall?

    Rust Problem in Domestic and Industrial Sector

    When you brought home the metal furniture and antiques you felt proud. Shine, glaze and luster of metals looked good. You thought all the products would stay as they were for long. But the story did not go smooth. Despite the protective coating of rust-proof materials, rust formed and damaged metal goods.

    The same thing can happen in industrial sector as well. In factories, furnaces, manufacturing units, packaging plants, print and publishing companies and in all other production plants most machines, equipments and tools are made of iron.

    Naturally it becomes a must for the companies to take up some protective measures to protect the metal equipments from rust. A number of mechanical equipments, machineries, tools and accessories are sent for maintenance in industries; this not only increases operating cost, but increases down time, waste and unwanted delays.

    Moreover, as rusting iron is weak and fragile, rusted machineries pose risks of accidents and mishaps. People associated may get injured severely while handling a faulty machine.

    It really feels very bad when the things of daily use begin to rust. Gardening tools, hanger, window siding, furniture, swing in garden, hammers, pliers, nut-bolts, and all metal items are susceptible to rust attacks.

    Rust-proofing – Keep metals from rusting:

    What inhibits rust formation? Is there anything that stops rust? Scientists and researchers have been trying to find a solution to this question from years.

    Do you know that rusting is nothing but a chemical reaction? Iron is oxidized in presence of water to form rust. If we can use a substance that stops or slows down oxidation of rust, we would be able to prevent rusting. Oxidation of iron is a very natural process and it starts when and where iron, oxygen and moisture are present side by side. It seems almost impossible to avoid the process. But, if proper preventive measures are taken, rusting can be stopped.

    The process of rusting is accelerated in presence of saline water or impure water. Just imagine, when your iron-made machineries, tools, heavy weight equipments are shipped for installation in other countries they are exposed to marine weather which is ideal for rust formation. Hence, rust treatment is compulsory while shipping metal equipments; rust attack is guaranteed. Saline sea water would definitely initiate rust formation which would take bigger shape in the long run.

    Possible Remedies:

    Since you cannot stop salty air it is good to insulate the metal body. The materials used for insulation provides protection from moisture. Solvent based paints, oil based coats and paints, thin film of grease, lamination, film of packaging materials are often applied all over the bare metal for rust-protection. These materials inhibit moisture and salty air to come in contact with iron and hence, rust formation is stopped.

    It is also good to spray rust remover solution all over the metal surface before applying rustproofing materials. If traces of rust are left inside, it may become real problem in the long run. If somehow moisture gets locked on the metal surface below the protective coating, rust starts spreading below the layer silently. When it takes bigger shape, it cracks the layer and exposes the main metal. So always spray rust removers before rustproofing your metal tools; stay protected.
