Hammerite No.1 Rust Beater Beige – 250ml (5092815)

Description

Genuine Hammerite · Part no. 5092815

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

This is the 250ml tin of Hammerite No.1 Rust Beater in beige, a primer that you brush straight onto rusty steel to kill the rust and prime and undercoat it in one go. The small tin suits a few patches on a car, a towbar, brackets or a trailer drawbar.

Good to know

• Why beige? A light primer helps a light topcoat cover in fewer coats; under black or dark colours, the dark brown Rust Beater is the better base.
• How should I apply it? On a dry day, brush onto rust that has been wire-brushed back to a firm surface, working it into the pits, and let it dry before the topcoat.
• Can it fix a hole? No. It treats surface rust; metal that has rusted through needs a repair panel or welding before any primer goes on.

Which one?

For larger areas, the same beige primer comes in a 2.5 Litre tin (5084842); to spray rather than brush, the 400ml aerosol (5092873). The Rust Beater also comes in dark brown (5092810) and grey (5158238).
