Application Instructions:
Apply Rust Con 500 to wrought iron first to convert existing rust to phosphate.
No major surface preparation (such as scraping or sand blasting) required. When loose rust is evident, a wire brush is recommended to remove areas of rust that have detached from the surface of the iron.
Once dry, the treated area will be darker in color and more uniform in appearance with a durable, protective finish that can be painted if desired. When painting over the finished surface of RustCon 500, an oil-based product is recommended.
For long-lasting protection of wrought iron, follow Rust Con 500 with a coat of Zin Kote 601 after the initial treatment has dried thoroughly.

Application Instructions:
When applying zinc coating, the surface should be clean and free of oil, dust, or old paint and any loose rust or corrosion should be removed using a wire brush. When applying over a coat of Rust Con 500, ensure that the initial treatment has dried thoroughly.
Shake can vigorously until agitator ball rattles and then for one minute after to ensure that all the zinc is in suspension. Hold can at least 10 inches from metal surface and spray with a sweeping motion.
Zin Kote 601 dries to touch within 15 minutes. If additional coats of the product or paint are desired, allow Zin Kote 601 to dry for 6 hours before reapplying. Several thin coats are more effective than one heavy coat. After an application of Zin Kote 601 has thoroughly dried, a suitable topcoat can be used when desired. An oil or latex-based enamel paint is recommended within 24 hours of using the Restore treatment kit.
After applying, invert can and spray a few short bursts to clear valve.
This product leaves a grey finish that blends with existing hot dip surfaces. This pure zinc is excellent for spot treating when complete coverage is not feasible.
