    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.

    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.

  • @FknNefFy
    @FknNefFy 3 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    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!

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.

    • @AlleyPicked
      @AlleyPicked  3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      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.

    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.

    • @asuwish7640
      @asuwish7640 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      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?

    • @user-cg7tl
      @user-cg7tl 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      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.

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 🤷

    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.

      Not a lot different. You still need treat the rust by either sanding it off or using a product like I used in the video.

    The house i just bought has a metal clothesline posts in the backyard. But theyve been out there for decades and really rusted. But id like to keep them. Would this work for it?

      I think it will work. The key is to sand as much rust off as possible. Clean it and then treat the rust with Klean Strip metal prep, then paint it with oil based rustoleum paint. Use the brush on paint from a can, it's thicker and will last longer.

    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.

      I tend to agree. On my latest project, I soaked it in vinegar to remove almost all of the rust. Then I used ospho. Then rustoleum.

    Hello what paint would you recommend that is not a spray can? I need to repaint my large metal radiator cover (non working) and i dont want to use spray paint inside. Thank you!!

    • @AlleyPicked

      You can use many types of paint. Depends if it is rusty. Oil based paint might stink a bit. If the radiator doesn't get hot, you can even use house paint. I suggest using a small foam roller. I use them when I paint my doors and they come out great.

      I have all kinds of videos on refinishing and rebuilding furniture and well as painting metal objects. I don't have a complete one on a metal school desk but I'm sure I have covered all the aspects on my channel.

    Good video. I have an old tortilla press. Can this be painted so it can be reused again? It has some rust on it buts not too bad. If it can be repainted, does it affect the reheating or the taste of the tortilla. Thank you.

      You wouldn't want to paint anything that touches food. If you are referring to the outside, that is a different story. I would need more information to give you a specific answer.

      If it’s cast iron, sand off the rust, brush it with a cooking oil, wipe off the excess, and bake it. There are videos on how to season cast iron, but that’s what you are doing.

    I use scratch and brush off the brunt of the rust first and then a apply vinegar or vinegar concentrate (25% acidity) and let it sit to transform the rust. Like with your product it turns the rust into a black sludge, which I wipe off with some paper after an hour or two, and then rinse and dry it. If necessary I repeat. (Is the stuff you use acidic too ?)
    I heard that although being effective, iron/steel surfaces treated this way are even more subject to adhering rust again and therefore should receive a well made coating.

    Thank you very much for the video, very useful. Is the sander a special kind or regular wood sander will work too?

      I just have one orbital sander, I use it for wood and metal.
