GEM RUST KILLER & METAL PREP
is a balanced formula of phosphoric acid, wetting agents and extenders. It chemically
changes iron oxide (rust) to iron phosphate, forming a tough undercoating which
inhibits re-rusting.
Paint can then adhere so closely to the metal preventing moisture and oxygen from
attacking the surface, thus resulting in a much longer enduring paint job. It is a
rust-inhibiting coating, NOT A PAINT. Surfaces
should be top coated after treatment. It is equally effective for both exterior and
interior use.
Rust inhibitors are recommended by paint manufacturers.
GEM RUST KILLER & METAL PREP meets USDA 1996 guidelines for use in
federally inspected meat and poultry plants and current NSF requirements for
Registration # 122378, code R2.
APPLICATION:
Remove any grease and oil with a water based degreaser. Remove any paint and heavy rust
with a wire brush or other means. Protects welded joints and sandblasted metal from flash
rusting. Cover surface with GEM RUST KILLER & METAL PREP
directly from the container using a plastic or stainless sprayer, nylon brush, a roller or
by immersing smaller items. Metal treated, develops a grayish to black surface. To get a
smooth surface, wipe dissolved residue with a clean cloth or scuff pad moistened with
GEM RUST KILLER & METAL PREP This does not need to be
rinsed. LET DRY OVERNIGHT. Oil based primer should be
used with water-based paint. A cured surface which is rinsed or exposed to rain often turns
a light gray color, excessive dew and humidity may prolong drying time and produce a powdery
build up. Brush away loose powder before painting. For best results, use at temperatures
between 65 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. One gallon covers approximately 600 square feet. Clean
equipment with water after use.
AVOID: Contact with painted
surfaces, concrete, masonry and stonework. Flush immediately with water if splashing
occurs.

GEM RUST KILLER & METAL PREP
safely dissolves bleeding rust from porcelain, tile, marble, masonry, fiberglass, etc. Pour a
small amount on a clean cloth and rub well over the surface. Rinse with clean water.
PRECAUTION: Store
GEM RUST KILLER & METAL PREP
in original container only.
DE-RUST WITH ACID BATH: Use plastic container only.
GEM RUST KILLER & METAL PREP. Part must be free of any
oil or dirt. Submerge parts in bath. A chemical re-action occurs resulting in a "boiling"
appearance. Keep a close eye on thin steel parts that can be eaten away. Mild rust vanishes in
10 to 20 minutes when exposed to fresh acid. Heavier rust takes longer, even to being soaked
overnight.
GALVANIZED: For light rust cover area and allow to
dry. Repeat application if rust is still evident. For heavy rust use repeated applications,
keeping the surface wet until rust softens before allowing to dry. After thoroughly dry, inspect
to verify there is no signs of rust remaining. Repeat if rust is still evident.
LET DRY OVERNIGHT. Remove any loose powder and apply
oil-based paint. Where appearance is important, apply one coat to etch metal. Wipe to a smooth
finish, let dry, then paint.
CHROME: Apply full strength keep wet until rust
softens, wipe with clean cloth allow to dry. Apply auto wax immediately.
CAUTION: Contains phosphoric acid. Use in well
ventilated area, suitable precaution should be observed (such as wearing rubber gloves,
goggles and protective clothing) when handling product. Avoid contact with eyes and prolonged
contact with skin or clothing. Do not swallow.
For spray mist use NIOSH/MSHA acid respirator with face piece. During severe exposure, use
self-contained breathing apparatus.
FIRST AID:
- IF SWALLOWED: Rinse mouth. Do Not induce vomiting.
- IF ON SKIN: (or hair): Take off immediately all
contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water or shower Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
