Dear Tee,

Good luck in your project.

Well, i have got some good news for you. It has been nearly 6 months now and it seems that the method used on my car is effective so far.

Just dont forget to repaint the open rust after treatment by any mean possible. As for the roof, i would recomend to use the paint made for high temperature as the roof is directly exposed to hot sun. Car paint should be fine as they are made to withstand harsh condition and they mends to metal very well. But i used only nail polish and build up the paint, layer by layer and avoid one thick coat.


Thanks..

Hi,

It has been a year already since i last fix the rust on the hinges of my Nissan AD Resort and so far i have not seen the recurrence of the rust. I guess the problem has been fixed.

I have another new project on my car. Im getting blister on roof as well and will use the same method on it. Will start my project maybe by end of this week and will update the results to u guys.

By the way, for those who just came in can check on the link below for further details

Any comment if i already put normal antirust that bought from normal hardware shop? RM10 that kind? it stated Cat Pencegah Karat Primer.
I am in the mid of repairing my roof cancer. some of the spot i cannot sand paper them. but i just force the antirust to go in. will it last or i should buy rust convertor to reaply?

Where can get Kurust(Hammerite).????

 

[teearts]

Kurust(Hammerite) can get from certain ACE hardware shops. Call them up before you visit the shop, they may out of stock sometime!

 

[muskasim]

ACE hardware available only at KL im from penang...

Try using "Colgate","Darlie" or any toothpaste!! I am not fool around with you, Mr. Muskasim. You see, the main cause of the metal rust is toxic glue, which mean the glue got acidic ingredient in it. So, is that possible we use something contenting with 'alkaline' to make it back to normal or balance? I got this idea b4 I'm using Kurust, but since I'd found this product in KL, so I just use it. Anyway, surely would share with you guys if any idea came accross in my mind later. Take care, brother!
