The US Navy likes a Zinc Chromate primer coat and an oil based topcoat. That combo seems to hold off the rust pretty well in a saltwater environment. I personally have had good luck with the Phosphoric Acid primer paints.

Thank you for this wonderful tutorial on how to prep and paint metal. I used this video to restore my late father's 1977 metal backyard shed. 1. I used Rustoleum Rust Di-solver on the metal and let it sit for 30 minutes. 2. I used 000 steel wool on the metal. 3. I used my husband's power sander to make light work. I first used 120 grade sandpaper and then finished with 220 grade sandpaper. 4. I treated the metal all over with Klean Strip that I picked up from Home Depot for $17.97 per gallon. I used it full strength on the roof, I dissolved one part Klean Strip to 3 parts water on the rest of the shed. Both were put in spray bottles. I then rinsed off the shed with water. 5. There were some holes in the shed, so I used Flex Seal products (tape, paste and spray) to cover up the holes rust and weather did over the years. 6. I then put on two coats of Kilz 3 primer. 7. Finally, I used Sherwin-Williams Weathershield Satin Tintable Latex Exterior Paint + Primer from Lowes. It was $58 per gallon. I am so glad I found this video. I am nowhere near a painter and this helped me bring life to an old shed on my mom's property. She is so thankful. Only thing left is to find some screws that are missing, but that is no biggy. Good luck.

Hi Kim - Glad the video helped you keep the old shed. Now it should last longer than if you bought a new one. Sounds like you did a thorough job. Thanks for the feedback. Tom

If you’re painting something like a wrought iron gate Hammerite Direct to Rust Metal Paint works very well. Just sand off the worst of the rust to get rid of anything loose then paint it on. Lasts for years and very quick.

I'm 71 and a widow. I have a butane tank that needs cleaning and painting. I need to remove small areas of rust first. I could pay someone with all the equipment but thought about trying myself. I may have to watch your tutorial a few more times.

Ospho and other rust converters (not inhibiter) are fairly expensive. I use it on any metal that has rust, like steel based fencing, etc. I believe the general recommendation is to apply the rust converter for like 24 hours or at least overnight so the chemical can soak in. For this, apply paper towels (or cut strips for small or angular places) soaked with the rust converter. For de-mineralizing my shower faucet controls, I also use paper towel strips, soaked in vinegar, and wrap them around areas with mineral deposits. Overnight or for a few hours. Or use CLR. The minerals deposit will dissolve. With metal rust, Ospho will convert the rust to a paintable oxide of some sort.

Sanding and rust neutralizer to the rescue! Thank you, friend - I know what to do now!

I agree clear instructions and straight to the point, I have a bench to restore I am going to use this video 👍

I also like to clear coat any metal I've spray painted - it makes that paint surface more durable - and cleanable. I've had terrific experience with Rustoleum's 2X (paint and primer) spray paints. And you can easily both paint/prime and clear coat small projects (in warm weather) within an hour. Great video!

Your are correct about the timing for spray paint. Right after “Flashtime” aka once it’s not wet looking is the best time to apply additional coats as it’s sticking to its self in the same form.... then after two hours the bond isn’t very good.... so you gotta wait til it’s fully dry (in essence starting at step one) Thanks for the advice on rust!

If you have a lot of surface to paint, like a ladder, or metal door, you can use grinder with steel wheel brush, on low speed (needs to have adjustable speed). It strips old paint fast, even multiple layers, putty, concrete, rust and you expose the metal surface again. Also much cheaper than sand paper, as you need lots of paper for large surfaces. Then, if any old paint survived, you can be certain that its stuck very well and you can paint over it with no issue. You need to prime first, though. With sandpaper, unless you repeat on same place multiple times, there may still be some loose paint that still doesn't fall, but it will if you change direction. So not always very reliable. Paint pieces will come off only if something goes under it, forcing it to lift, which is what the steel wire does.

Great tip! Is there such a thing as a steel wheel brush which would fit on my drill? I don't have a grinder. I'm repainting interior metal handrails. I've used the non toxic paint stripper and a scraper to remove layers of paint, plus a wire brush and very fine steel wool. Even after all that I'm concerned that it's not smooth enough and bumps or scratches will show after it's painted. Haaa....long explanation to ask about drill attachments. What's a good metalic paint product which can be applied with a paint brush?

I would NEVER "fix" the rust on a ladder. Not worth it! If the rust is eating away at it, even if you restore it, the integrity is permanently compromised and will not be up to spec of what it was designed for. Not worth your life if you fall off a good-looking restored yet compromised ladder! Just buy a new ladder. It will cost quite a bit to restore it anyway, and isn't worth the risk.

The step with Ospho is a great tip. Thanks

A very well done instructional video!

Six years ago or so I found a paperback copy of "The Secret Teachings" in my local Little Free Library. I was just beginning my esoteric studies in earnest and thought it looked interesting. Recently I was at Taschen in Paris and saw the reissued version with the full color plates. I didn't have the 500 euros for it but now bitterly regret not buying it just for the art work. This lecture was fascinating. Thank you so much. I had no idea either that he was murdered.

Thank you so much for this!

Thank you so much. Now I know what to do with my bedside lamps that started rusting on the base.

Thanks you for the OSPHO tip. Maybe someone mentioned it but, I have had alligatoring if I did sprayed outside of the recoat window stated on Rustoleum. Still held up fine but it puckered right up. Fortunately it was an outdoor sign post and no one gets close enough to see it.

excellent. if more videos were this concise I would spend more time here!

wood only requires 220 grit as finest. metal you should go to 600 so you don't have sanding marks showing thru the paint. also you need to sand to smooth where you go from paint to no paint. otherwise the lack of good prep will show in the final results as does here.

Luv it! Awesome!

Vinegar does remove rust too. It does use acetic acid while the neutralizers use phosphoric acid. The vinegar can remove rust while the neutralizers change the rust into iron via a chemical reaction. I personally like the neutralizer since I found it for $15 a gallon at home depot. I think it also works faster.

My mom has a decorative metal sign that has faded and rusted. I’ve been trying to find out what materials and methods I can use to refresh and paint a new image so that it can endure outdoor sun/showers/snow - at least for a few years. This seems like great info for setting down a great canvas. Would I be able to paint on top of a white coat like this with other art paint (acrylic or oil) and then successfully seal it with a clear coat? Her previous sign had words and flowers, so spray cans won’t work for the design but I don’t know what would be successful 🤷

After I use the mineral spirits, it is OK to it? That won’t mess with the primer.

Good tip 👍

Kinda looked cool with black rust marks 😄

Spot putty also comes in handy to get the smoothest finish...

That's interesting. I guess I don't have one specific answer, just some thoughts. If they are shiny and smooth, any paint you use will easily scratch off. You may consider dulling the surface of them using a wire wheel on a drill or grinder before painting them with Rust-oleum which has a rust inhibitor. You might also look into applying some of that Klean Strip metal prep before painting. I have also used a wax to protect metal. I make my own from beeswax and mineral oil. Car waxes also offer some protection. Of course you can't paint on top of any wax product. It will probably end up being some experimentation on your part to find the best solution. Good Luck.

Rust neutralizer. I tried this rust “inhibitor” primer. I had the metal completely cleaned to shiny bare metal. The rust come through the primer. I’ll try the neutralizer. 👍🏼

I suppose so. Most cars use a clear coat. I usually don't use one on smaller projects but if applied correctly, a clear coat seems like it would offer added protection.

I've tried various rust treatment products that say they turn rust into a black surface that won't rust. They are all maybe slightly better than rustoleum, and some, if you get it on non rusty metal will cause rust to form. The best way to get the paint to last is to make sure all rust is removed completely.
