HILHELM Water-Based Heavy Rust Conversion Coating - Low VOC Anti-Corrosion Primer for Steel Surfaces

HILHELM Water-based Heavy Rust Conversion Coating belongs to the HILHELM rust-conversion anti-corrosion paint series. It adopts the latest steel anti-corrosion coating protection technology and provides long-lasting, highly effective protection for rusty and unprepared steel surfaces. This innovative solution not only significantly extends the service life of anti-corrosion topcoats but also makes the anti-corrosion coating process simpler, more efficient, economical, and environmentally friendly.

The new method is based on a novel chemical chelation process that converts rust on iron surfaces into a hydrophobic passivation layer. Compared with traditional manual or mechanical rust removal coating methods and coating-over-rust methods, this rust-conversion anti-corrosion system achieves long-lasting, continuous inhibition of rust formation, providing superior protection before rust recurrence.

• Simple operation and labor saving — no need for grinding, water washing, acid pickling, sandblasting, phosphating or other treatments to remove rust
• Greatly reduces construction intensity and cost while improving coating efficiency
• Neutral pH; non-corrosive to steel substrates
• Catalytic reactivity — forms a dense black inert protective layer with excellent anti-re-rusting performance
• Water-based, low odor, extremely low VOC; free of lead and other heavy metals, acids and alkalis
• Provides longer anti-rust protection than ordinary rust conversion systems
• Good tolerance to ferric chloride impurities on the surface, particularly important for marine systems
• Easy to apply on dry or damp rusty surfaces
• Excellent compatibility with most commercially available solvent-based paints

1. Clean surface to remove loose rust, oil, and contaminants
2. Apply rust converter evenly across the surface
3. Allow 24 hours drying time for complete curing and film formation
4. Surface is ready for topcoating with water-based paints
