Hammerite No.1 Rust Beater Beige – 2.5 Litre (5084842)

Description

Genuine Hammerite · Part no. 5084842

Safety: Warning. Flammable liquid and vapour. May cause drowsiness or dizziness. Read the label before use.

Hammerite No.1 Rust Beater 5084842 is a 2.5 litre tin of beige rust-killing primer that goes straight onto rusty steel, killing the rust, priming and undercoating in one coat. It is meant for big, heavily pitted areas, such as a trailer chassis, a van floor or old steel gates.

Good to know

• Do I still need to prepare the metal? Yes. Wire-brush or sand off loose rust and flaking paint first, so the primer goes onto a firm surface; firm rust can stay.
• What topcoat goes over it? Hammerite say it works with most topcoats; choose a primer colour close to the topcoat, light under light colours and dark under dark.
• Who needs the 2.5 litre tin? Anyone covering large areas by brush or roller, such as a whole trailer or a set of steel wheels; for touch-ups a small tin is enough.

Which one?

For touch-ups, the same beige primer comes in 250ml (5092815) and as a 400ml aerosol (5092873). For bare, clean steel rather than rusty metal, Isopon Zinc 182 Anti-rust Primer 2.5 Litre (Z182/2.5) is a grey primer for bodywork.
