Read New Venture Products Ltd Reviews

Flag Water Based Rust Converter is a simple to use, easy to apply rust converter that converts rust and leaves a protective coating. Available in  250ml, 1 litre, 2.5 litre and 5 litre sizes, Flag Rust Converter is an economic and effective way to treat rust and leave an attractive satin black finish.
Flag Rust Converter is a water based heavy duty rust converter which not only neutralises and encapsulates the rust but also forms a tough and attractive black satin finish. It can be left as a standalone finish or can be overcoated with a solvent based primer or topcoat, please note that it should not be overcoated with Xylene based paints such as Protectakote, Safekote or Flag's Anti Corrosive QD Metal Primer. If in doubt it is always advisable to do a test patch. As with all water based finishes it should not be applied when the substrate and/or the ambient temperatures are below 10°C.

Interior and Exterior (nb. minimum application temperature of 10°C)

Suitable substrates:

Always buy this paint to repaint cast iron garden furniture, brilliant coverage and nice finish, no need to cover with a metal top coat as we are happy with the look as it is

I have used this product before and found it to be very good in several ways . Easy to apply by brush, doesn’t drip, dries to a Matt finish which I overspray with aerosol bituminous paint . The rust is transformed leaving a solid base which is very satisfactory. I’ve tried others, usually thin watery products, they work reasonably but not as good as Flag. This is my experience from years of classic car repair and maintenance. Keith Howland.

Ordered ready for job, preparing classic car under body, not used yet as saying not to use below 10 degrees C. Got a long wait or moment before can use. Company supplied on time and well packaged, so that bit worked well.
