Question 1

how many 1 Quart Bottles would I need to cover 80 ft. of Pipe Iron Fencing?  Would it be best to buy by the Gallon?

Accepted Answer

You could use a pump sprayer, but a brush also works and there isn't any overspray. A little goes a long ways in my experience. It depends on the square footage of your fence and how bad the rust is, but I wouldn't start with more than 2 quarts. It turns the treated areas white, so you may want to paint it, but it works great.

Question 2

would this work removing rust off atv?

Accepted Answer

As long as the metal is iron based, it should work fine.  Not sure how well it would work on aluminum or other base metals.  Some atv's are made to be lightweight, so it might be aluminum.  Get a magnet an check to see if it sticks to the body.

Question 3

I bought a house and the previous owner painted the flashing around the hosuse. There is no rust but paint is peeling off, will this work for me

Accepted Answer

This will not work for you.  The reason the paint is peeling is because the flashing is probably galvanized. What you need to do is etch the flashing.  You do that by washing it down with vinegar.  Let it sit for one day, then wash it off with water, once it is dry it is ready for paint.  Rustoleum, used to sell a primer for this, but it was no good.  I have not seen it in a while.

Question 4

If I sprayed this on paint will it affect it? I have rust bubbling through.

Accepted Answer

I do not think this will have positive affects on the paint. It is an acid, and although it did not take the paint off of applications I applied it to, it did affect the paint, some flaked off, and what stayed on turned ash colored. If you plan on putting it on, then sanding and painting over the old paint there is no issues.
