Description:
Cortec® CorrVerter® is a fast drying, water-based one-coat system (primer) that converts rusted surfaces to a hydrophobic passive layer and prevents further rusting thru the unique formulation of chelating agents and PDVC resins. This is an ideal solution for situations where blasting is not an option due to site restriction or other limitations. It is formulated to penetrate and eliminate rust, penetrate to the bare metal and stop further rusting. Provides outstanding corrosion protection in salt spray conditions and excellent 5B adhesion to topcoats. It has the flexibility of being used with either water-based or solvent-based topcoat systems including urethanes, epoxies, acrylics, and alkyds. 

Packaging:
Available in 1 gallon and 5 gallon pails. Store indoors and out of direct sunlight at 40-100ºF. Do not let the product freeze.

How to Use:
Mix thoroughly before use. Remove loose rust with a wire brush and wash the rusty steel surface with high-pressure water to remove excess salt contamination. Brush, roll, or spray CorrVerter® at 3-5 mils (75-125 microns) dry film thickness. Brush application is preferred to ensure penetration into the rust. The coating can be applied to dry or damp surfaces. The converter can be used as is or may be diluted up to 10% with water. For badly corroded surfaces, a second coat of CorrVerter® should be applied within 20-30 minutes to ensure maximum protection. Allow to air dry 12-24 hours before applying topcoat.

Typical Applications:
CorrVerter® is recommended for use on all ferrous metal surfaces as a rust converter/paint primer. The product can be used in situations where proper cleaning or sandblasting is difficult. Ideal for industrial maintenance, general metal, marine applications.
