Hey Scott, I was a firefighter for 32 years and one thing we stressed, taught is to never walk backwards on a roof. Bad things happen, granted most of my times were in smoky conditions. Just a recommendation. Love the channel.
A bit late now, but the old (30-40 years ago) instructions for 'rust converters' had the user wire brush or scrape the rust to remove any loose rust before brushing on the converter, which was basically Phosphoric Acid, same as used to put a corrosion resistant matt finish on military equipment (and in cola soft drinks and food production as well as dentistry).
Yep, ideal to remove most of the rust it has converted the "top layer" of rust, i.e. the top surface rust has been neutralized but there is still rust underneath and so removal with wire brush works best to get rid of most of it before hand....maybe on the second half of the roof!
Scotch-Brite pad would work perfect for surface rust. In Australia we have a product called ranex that sounds like what “Bruce Lee” was talking about. Seems to work much quicker than this product too
Dude, you're living in a paradise! You also have a spouse willing to climb up on the roof to help! You must have been a very good person in a past life.
YES. You have addressed my concern in this video. Every time previous you've said "underlay", I have been fighting a compulsive urge to do a Speedy Gonzalez impersonation.
Be careful with primers. Often they cannot stay in the elements long before being painted over. They are primers meant to be painted over with something that last longer in the elements.
The paint stirring scene at 13:55 was my favourite part - got a good laugh there! What about the view from the top of the garage...2 story house renovation required here, to soak in those great views.
They look cool, but they tend to load up with the paint to the point that they won't roll any more, so you end up with a huge sponge of paint on the end of the pole, smearing it around on the roof swearing at it.
From recent experience, they don't work so well with solvent-based paint and in my case, the sponge came free from the cardboard sleeve and promptly fell off the roof. Left an interesting pattern on the path below.
Hate to be one of those no no nancy’s but was skeptical about rust converter on galvanized metal. Major manufacturer in north america advises against. “ It will not work on aluminum, copper, stainless steel or galvanized metal. “ Maybe yours is a different compound. Maybe the top primer will also protect roof enough or maybe just maybe by the time the converter proves to fail by bubbling up from underneath you will have 50 gajillion subscribers and a syndicated tv show. Just being a jerk. Love your show.
It's interesting. I am a carpenter in Switzerland and I would like to work there because it is very different compared to Switzerland. Greetings from Bern
Works on basic chemistry, the phosphorus replaces the iron in the rust creating phosphorus oxide which is stable and does not continue to react with the iron in the roofing sheet
G,day Scott and Jess from Sydney Australia. I don't wash my paint roller trays out. Simply use all paint and let dry. After continual use: say (ten) times place flat screwdriver under one corner and peel paint skin out, leaving a clean tray. Disposal in trash can. 🌏🇦🇺
Had corrugated mietal roofs in Hawaii for years, and even the old ones never leaked or needed underlayment. Yet when we built "real" houses, new houses in the 70's we sheathed the roofs for shear, so we needed underlayment then. You lose the sound of the rain. OK some people must have had leaks. I just mean we just put our roofs on and no one thought about underlayment for a roof on purlins. This rust converter is something new to me. We found the quality of the steel to begin with was most important and used zinc oxide paints if we used any. At the end--- NZ is so beautiful! We loved hiking there.
Scott, you could continue to lay your membrane in a vertical fashion. Just fold the edge of the underlying felt over by about 100mm. Then if any water does track under it will hit the fold and track down towards the gutter (if there is one). It’s a method we use on underfelt when we repair sections if there’s a rip in it for example but there’s no reason you can’t do it on large sections like yours.
Mint episode Scott! I swear these videos get better and better every time. Cheers as well for the roofing maintenance content, that's something a lot of us younger builders have missed out on learning from our apprenticeships in nz.
I never knew there were paint rollers specifically for corrugated roofing. This is awesome to know as I will be needing to prime and paint my shop roof this year! Thank you so much for the tiip!!!!
Nice job. Reminds me of when I did my parents roof a few years back. I would have used an airless to paint the roof. Once you paint a roof with an airless you'll never want to paint with a brush and roller ever again.
POR-15 is not UV resistant, it needs to be top-coated. If you don't it will fail. While I've used POR-15 for years, phosphoric acid and 2-pack epoxy primer is actually much more durable.
@@ckm-mkc True, POR-15 does need a topcoat if it's outside and I've successfully used Rustoleum for that purpose, which has worked beautifully for years.
Hey Scott and Jess! Suggestion: Consider painting the roof titanium white or a colour that either has a high LRV rating or a manufacturer specific cooling additive. Resene call theirs "cool colours", Dulux call theirs "Keep Cool technology", but at the end of the day it's the LRV rating that you're interested in. With a metal roof, especially, the choice of one of these cooler colours and/or higher LRV ratings means less expansion and contraction of the material - meaning you lengthen the service life of the material. As it's reflecting more of the sun's energy rather than absorbing it (leave that job for solar panels if that's your thing), it's also reducing the temperature inside your house when the sun is at its highest i.e. a passively cooler environment in summer, meaning less energy spent on active cooling. In Winter, the sun is lower in the sky and you should be getting more of its energy through your windows - obviously dependent on the building's orientation - so reflecting any of its energy away isn't as much of a problem either. In my house, after we upgraded the insulation, it was an absolute furnace the following Summer, I hate to think what it would have been like with the incoming R6.6 standard! Shortlyl after that, we had our roof rescrewed, prep'd and painted titanium white. The following Summer, the aircon didn't go on at all - the white roof did its job brilliantly.
For me also was suprise those roller what I have not see in north Europe. Actually I haven't see no one who are painting old roof sheets in our country :D. Great work!
Hi Scott as a tradesman painter I spray roofs wot I do is wire buff the rust areas clean down then apply the rust converter for a good surface then airless spray the coats as on as spraying will tend to get into areas rollers won't and also the topcoats will have more microns for protection and yes I use metalsheild primer and Dulux roof and trim great products , cheers ,shaneo , nelson 😊👍
What a beautifully done th-cam.com/users/postUgkxYGamVaHfdHiPlAQaLa7zkwR02OKpGYDU ! The instructions and the photographs are brilliant. It is thorough and genuinely informative. Ryan got another winner! No one does it better!
Well, if all of this doesn't work, at least you can have the satisfaction that "paint on filth equals to clean" (french navy saying). Thanks for the video, and the humor!
I use the CRC rust converter, it works exceptionally well for what it is. Was pleasantly surprised. Though it's recommend not taking the metal back to bright clean metal, as it does need the iron oxide to convert. It's a great product for extending the life of things with very little effort. Depending on rust level, it will need multiple coats. Once it goes nice and black you've applied enough, if you still see rust it needs more. be-careful not to over-apply as that can have a negative effect. The best results I've found is one coat, let it dry and set, wipe off excess (those white/purpleish streaks), repeat until all rust is converted to the strong hard black primer. You shouldn't need to apply a primer on-top of this product. In reality I hardly ever do it in the best prescribed way, I just keep coating until it's all converted then slap zinc paint on-top and I've not had an issue yet. I use this stuff in a high humidity environment and it's a life saver for restoring rusted iron/steel. That cap will never come off easily again btw...
The garage roof looks so much better with paint on it . I love corrugated iron, when I retired, I renovated our home, and the first job was to get rid of the cement tiles and replace it with colourbond corrugated iron. The tiles were estimated to weigh three tonnes 😵 I really enjoy the sound of rain on the roof. 😁👌👌👌
Hi Scott Brown. Love you're work and love your attitude to everything. There's alot to learn from people like you. All the best to you and your partner.
Excellent work SBC… interesting roof restoration… the roof looks great. Good work Jess. It must be so rewarding renovating, especially now it is your property. The garage has become a comfortable work space. All the best Scott & Jess!😎
Should put a few full length acrylic panels in the roof bro, get some sunlight in. Another tip with the steel is to fold up the last 20mm of the valleys under the ridge capping before you put the ridge on. This will prevent wind driven water blowing uphill and in under the ridge cap. Nowadays too you can get a shape matched foam filler strip that plugs the valleys and does the same job blocking water.
Looking great! Also, my vote is for painting the ceiling in the shed white -- it already looks so much brighter in there with only some of it white from the paper
I like this a lot, I mean I’m still looking forward to the day when you take like a dozen car jacks and raise the roof about a meter but this is a great start!
Been watching since the beginning fella. I'm a chippy in the UK. Seeing you work on other people's houses in previous episodes and now going to watch you do it all on your own place! Nice. Can't wait to see how it all turns out bro!
Rust converter aka phosphoric acid. You can achieve the same with 50/50 Coca Cola & Vinegar. Soak your trowels in it and blacken them up to stop alkaline materials causing Iron Oxide III, orange rust. Good tip on the larger screws. I've got to get up on Mum & Dads garage soon and am expecting to find a few loose ones that'll need a redo.
Awesome bro, just recently watched from episode 1 all the way to the latest episode, im from Auckland myself living in aus so was always nice seeing familiar places in your videos, good stuff bro 🤙
Hi Scott and Jess. Great work and good to see that you take time out to relax and spend together - very important in a young relationship and not just endless work. NZ is a fabulous place to visit. I did a 19 day coach tour of both islands in March 2019 (before it got too cold). Terrific people, sights and places to visit and clean and comfortable accommodation. You two are promoting value for business and for tourism with views of the country. Well done, and look forward each week to a new video.
I remember using those corrugated rollers on my old house... I hurled it off the roof in frustration as it wouldn't paint around the lead head nails and got a soft bristle broom. Used a bit more paint but finished in a ¼ of the time. :)))
How cool is that corrugated roller. Love Jess's hair. Seems like you're living the dream on the South Island. Love your stuff, man. Lots of love from Adam on the Isle of Wight aka the South Island.
In the UK we still get plaster board for less than £8 a 8/4. Timber is still silly prices. I've used a ronseal rust converter on my van and it turned the rust hard and black, amazed how it works but it does.
Hi Scott. Love your videos. In south Africa we typically use Deoxidine to remove the rust. Works really great. Then I paint primer and topcoat with an airless sprayer cause I do larger roofs like on factories.
Just chipping in with additional info for anyone else reading - don't use this on anything galvanised - which the majority of corrugated iron roofs in NZ and Australia are. The phosphoric acid will eat through the zinc right before your eyes. It's a good rust convertor on anything else though. I've used it several times as we get it here in Oz too. Another thing worth mentioning, this product is it's not a rust inhibitor, it's a convertor, so any metal treated needs to be neutralised or painted soon after applying - the recommended time is within 4 hrs. Enhanced rusting will occur very quickly otherwise and any treated metal can be completely rusted over again if left even overnight. @Gerrit Geldenhuys, I guess you're already doing this if you're in the roof painting game :-)
@@moltopericoloso We typically apply Deoxidine to galvanised roofs that have a 30% or more rust coverage. We literally watch it until the rust is gone and then pressure wash to remove the Deoxidine. As soon as the roof is dry primer goes on immediately.
So glad you made that "andale andale" joke. Had that stuck in my mind since you first said it :D Really enjoying your beautiful videos. Greetings from Germany and keep up the good work!
Beautiful landscape b-roll at 16:00 and it's pretty great that you've turned Jess into a builder/youtuber, since it would be lonely if it was only just you Scott. Hoping for fair weather for the upcoming renovations your planning. Thanks for the content!
In this exciting episode we watch the many "Workings at Heights safety" red flags go up... But we don't say anything 🤫. I literally just came home from a Working at Heights training certification course here in Ontario, Canada. Passed with flying colors. I learned that over the years I've committed sooo many violations 😳 without knowing it. Luckily I was agile and smart enough to take good precautions. Never endangered anyone else. Be careful and stay safe, brother.
I've been working at height for over 20 years and I reckon the main reason for mishaps are lack of attention, inexperience, time pressure, bad weather and ego. I think Scott and Jess had those pretty well covered.
We have a brand here called Hammerite, been known for years to work against rust. They even have more liquid kind of stuff that really can convert heavy rust. But i never knew there were rollers specialy for corrugated sheets :D If only i knew that last year when i was painting mine.
I've often wondered why houses in New Zealand and Australia have lots of profile sheeting for residential roofs. These are predominantly only used in commercial buildings in the UK and cut edge corrosion is a big issue. Lovely views at the end.
it's really cost effective-maybe 15 to 17 Aussie kopeks a square meter if my brain is work'n right -goes up fast , already painted , edge corrosion does'nt seem an issue- (maybe closer to the ocean but I just use a bit of touch up spray on the edges ). A bunch of profiles are available, colours too. I have used it for my wall cladding. Plus it does not burn or rot. Good stuff. And it can be recycled.
@@robertandsharon9428 If you have unprotected cut edges and the building is near the ocean the salty environment simply contributes and accelerates the corrosion cycle due to the salty atmosphere. Lots of colours available granted but not as good as a traditional slate or clay tile roof on a residential building. From my understanding, these types of profile roofs were originally used because they were cheap and availability was not an issue. I believe the origin goes back to the early 1900's when people were settling in Australia from Europe and it got adopted as the go-to material for roofs. Even some prominent churches in Australia have these metal profile roofs, and in my opinion, such beautiful structures with fine stone masonry simply look hideos with these types of roofs. This is why if the building is listed and the roof covering is defective requiring replacement, it has to have the profile sheet replaced as like for like. - Just out of curiosity, what is an Aussie kopek?
You are the best mate, thanks for tips with the roofing. The only thing is I never trust at any rust converter or the paint, it’s like a Band-Aid. One solution - rust than replace and that will stay for next 30-40 years. Cheers
I wanna see the outtakes over the week of Jess trying to get a squarespace segway in, everytime Scott is filming.
segue.Just sayin’
@@wetawatcher lol. I kept waiting for someone to come in on a squarespace-branded Segway :)
Was literally just browsing TH-cam and thought where “Scott Brown here” at!? And here he be… greetings from Cornwall UK 🇬🇧
Scott brown here
Hey Scott, I was a firefighter for 32 years and one thing we stressed, taught is to never walk backwards on a roof. Bad things happen, granted most of my times were in smoky conditions. Just a recommendation. Love the channel.
From my (albeit limited) understanding, walking backwards on a roof is perfectly safe, it's walking backwards OFF a roof that's the issue.
That perfectly shaped roller is oddly satisfying
A bit late now, but the old (30-40 years ago) instructions for 'rust converters' had the user wire brush or scrape the rust to remove any loose rust before brushing on the converter, which was basically Phosphoric Acid, same as used to put a corrosion resistant matt finish on military equipment (and in cola soft drinks and food production as well as dentistry).
That's still worth doing. I often use a round wire brush in the drill.
As I recall, the bottle label included “properly prepared” (no liability here).
Yep, ideal to remove most of the rust it has converted the "top layer" of rust, i.e. the top surface rust has been neutralized but there is still rust underneath and so removal with wire brush works best to get rid of most of it before hand....maybe on the second half of the roof!

In Australia we have a product called ranex that sounds like what “Bruce Lee” was talking about. Seems to work much quicker than this product too
Yup; you'll find it on most steel boats with various names, but it's mainly a solution of phosphoric acid. Works great, tastes terrible.
That ending. Chef's kiss. Loving these videos and the feel that they have to them.
Love that idea of the sponsor entry. Props to whichever one of you that had the idea
Dude, you're living in a paradise! You also have a spouse willing to climb up on the roof to help! You must have been a very good person in a past life.
YES. You have addressed my concern in this video. Every time previous you've said "underlay", I have been fighting a compulsive urge to do a Speedy Gonzalez impersonation.
Me too!
Am I the only one who is completely in awe with the beautiful views and landscapes in this video? Actually in all the videos since the new location.
NZ is amazing, when I last visited I never wanted to leave…then I saw the housing prices.
@@epiccollision I would be a dream come true to be able to visit there.
Not cheap Scott resourceful and not wasteful. It be a great workshop for a few years yet.
Scott you are amazing. Thank you for representing NZ with such humility and great content
a big hand to squarespace for sponsoring the right channels.

Be careful with primers. Often they cannot stay in the elements long before being painted over. They are primers meant to be painted over with something that last longer in the elements.
The paint stirring scene at 13:55 was my favourite part - got a good laugh there! What about the view from the top of the garage...2 story house renovation required here, to soak in those great views.
That last shot was perfect!
Props to Dulux for doing a solid. They obviously know a good channel when they see it.
First time seeing those rollers, so cool. Can't wait to see the garage finished! Awesome vid as always Scott! 🖤
Don't bother using them they suck, just use a soft broom
They look cool, but they tend to load up with the paint to the point that they won't roll any more, so you end up with a huge sponge of paint on the end of the pole, smearing it around on the roof swearing at it.
From recent experience, they don't work so well with solvent-based paint and in my case, the sponge came free from the cardboard sleeve and promptly fell off the roof. Left an interesting pattern on the path below.
We used one on our house in 1981, but it wasn't as good as it looked. We mostly used brooms and a brush.
Hate to be one of those no no nancy’s but was skeptical about rust converter on galvanized metal. Major manufacturer in north america advises against.

The Jessegue returns! Thanks for this diversion into Scott Brown Painting. It'll be interesting to see how the rust remover holds up over time.
Scott Brown is a true hero of justice and righteousness.
With the way building material is priced now, actually saving and restoring material is becoming more feasible. Well done.

Yes. An oil primer is best, stronger. Not sure if that was oil or acrylic.

I remember using those corrugated rollers on my old house... I hurled it off the roof in frustration as it wouldn't paint around the lead head nails and got a soft bristle broom. Used a bit more paint but finished in a ¼ of the time. :)))
How cool is that corrugated roller. Love Jess's hair. Seems like you're living the dream on the South Island. Love your stuff, man. Lots of love from Adam on the Isle of Wight aka the South Island.
In the UK we still get plaster board for less than £8 a 8/4. Timber is still silly prices.
I've used a ronseal rust converter on my van and it turned the rust hard and black, amazed how it works but it does.
Hi Scott. Love your videos. In south Africa we typically use Deoxidine to remove the rust. Works really great. Then I paint primer and topcoat with an airless sprayer cause I do larger roofs like on factories.
Just chipping in with additional info for anyone else reading - don't use this on anything galvanised - which the majority of corrugated iron roofs in NZ and Australia are. The phosphoric acid will eat through the zinc right before your eyes. It's a good rust convertor on anything else though. I've used it several times as we get it here in Oz too. Another thing worth mentioning, this product is it's not a rust inhibitor, it's a convertor, so any metal treated needs to be neutralised or painted soon after applying - the recommended time is within 4 hrs. Enhanced rusting will occur very quickly otherwise and any treated metal can be completely rusted over again if left even overnight. @Gerrit Geldenhuys, I guess you're already doing this if you're in the roof painting game :-)
@@moltopericoloso We typically apply Deoxidine to galvanised roofs that have a 30% or more rust coverage. We literally watch it until the rust is gone and then pressure wash to remove the Deoxidine. As soon as the roof is dry primer goes on immediately.
@@moltopericoloso I’m planning on doing my galv roof soon and I’m in Oz. What products do you recommend please?
So glad you made that "andale andale" joke. Had that stuck in my mind since you first said it :D
Really enjoying your beautiful videos. Greetings from Germany and keep up the good work!
Love the corrugated brush and rollers. Never seen those before (in the UK).
Beautiful landscape b-roll at 16:00 and it's pretty great that you've turned Jess into a builder/youtuber, since it would be lonely if it was only just you Scott. Hoping for fair weather for the upcoming renovations your planning. Thanks for the content!
Nice work. If no one has said it already, if it is a one man carry I tend to have my flashings upside-down to prevent the folding in on themselves.
I feel like someone needs to make a 1hr loop of Scott mixing that paint
In this exciting episode we watch the many "Workings at Heights safety" red flags go up... But we don't say anything 🤫.
I literally just came home from a Working at Heights training certification course here in Ontario, Canada. Passed with flying colors. I learned that over the years I've committed sooo many violations 😳 without knowing it. Luckily I was agile and smart enough to take good precautions. Never endangered anyone else.
Be careful and stay safe, brother.
I've been working at height for over 20 years and I reckon the main reason for mishaps are lack of attention, inexperience, time pressure, bad weather and ego. I think Scott and Jess had those pretty well covered.
We have a brand here called Hammerite, been known for years to work against rust. They even have more liquid kind of stuff that really can convert heavy rust. But i never knew there were rollers specialy for corrugated sheets :D If only i knew that last year when i was painting mine.
Hammerite is available here but pretty sure it's fair bit more expensive than the CRC stuff Scott got.
As a roofer, watching you do roof things drives me mental 🤣🤣
Why does it drive you mental watching him do the roof?!
I've often wondered why houses in New Zealand and Australia have lots of profile sheeting for residential roofs. These are predominantly only used in commercial buildings in the UK and cut edge corrosion is a big issue. Lovely views at the end.
it's really cost effective-maybe 15 to 17 Aussie kopeks a square meter if my brain is work'n right -goes up fast , already painted , edge corrosion does'nt seem an issue- (maybe closer to the ocean but I just use a bit of touch up spray on the edges ). A bunch of profiles are available, colours too. I have used it for my wall cladding. Plus it does not burn or rot. Good stuff. And it can be recycled.
@@robertandsharon9428 If you have unprotected cut edges and the building is near the ocean the salty environment simply contributes and accelerates the corrosion cycle due to the salty atmosphere. Lots of colours available granted but not as good as a traditional slate or clay tile roof on a residential building. From my understanding, these types of profile roofs were originally used because they were cheap and availability was not an issue. I believe the origin goes back to the early 1900's when people were settling in Australia from Europe and it got adopted as the go-to material for roofs. Even some prominent churches in Australia have these metal profile roofs, and in my opinion, such beautiful structures with fine stone masonry simply look hideos with these types of roofs. This is why if the building is listed and the roof covering is defective requiring replacement, it has to have the profile sheet replaced as like for like. - Just out of curiosity, what is an Aussie kopek?
You are the best mate, thanks for tips with the roofing. The only thing is I never trust at any rust converter or the paint, it’s like a Band-Aid. One solution - rust than replace and that will stay for next 30-40 years. Cheers
Great transition to squarespace! Was not expecting that 😂👏
I would've used a brush instead of the broom. Love your work. The man. Thanks for the content
I just love the style of your videos! Thanks mate✌🏽
