Aquasteel Rust Converter is a unique corrosion control system Rust Converter Primer developed by Bayer-Wood Technologies. Rust Converter is for use on rusted ferrous metal surfaces. The ferrous surface to be protected by Rust Converter produced by Bayer-Wood technologies Limited is converted on contact to a complex organic iron compound by the unique deoxygenating agent incorporated in the Aquasteel Rust Converter. Rust Converer (which is a blue black, corrosion-resistant layer) is formed by utilizing all the surface moisture and oxygen during the reduction reaction. Rust converver special copolymer latex emulsion system dries to form an impermeable barrier to oxygen and moisture particularly salt water. Rust Converter "Aquasteel" l is water based and solvent free. Rust Converter contains no harsh phosphoric or hydrofluoric acids, making it safer for employees and for the environment. Rust converter is also non-hazardous unlike most competitor products in UK, Europe and USA.
Rust converter has been found to have exceptional polymer and primer properties leaving the quality and permeability of the final finish open to question and if it will actually give the protection it is claiming. Rust Conveter Aquasteel also has high adhesion properties giving a tight bond between the steel and the subsequent paint coatings. Rust Converter by Bayer-Wood has also been found to have the capability of being used as a single use product where it is difficult to over-coat or where there is too much moisture for over-coating or where a temporary but substantial protecion is required. Rust Converter has been found to be exceptional ........ ...............1.5.2007..
