Hammerite Kurust is a brush on rust treatment that converts iron oxide (rust) to stable iron complexes. If you – or the MoT tester – spot some rust, then don’t waste any time getting it sorted, because it’s not going to get any better.

Hammerite Kurust 250ml - House Of Paints

We left sections of 1mm unpainted mild steel to gently corrode outside over the course of several months, then let them thoroughly dry before treating both sides with our products, carefully following the instructions. With DUALTECH it provides two-way protection by repelling water and stopping rust, keeping the metal stronger for longer.Its protection performance was impressive too, with no corrosion visible on our painted surface, and just a few specks on the unfinished surface. However, any protection it offered was short-lived, and by the end of the test the unpainted side was almost uniformly corroded again. I have now moved this sample outside so I can see if the rust comes back, or if the Kurust has killed it off for good. Be careful not to get it confused with the liquid equivalent though, because this had a woeful result. The Neutrarust’s label looks like it means business, with all sorts of approvals from NATO and the Ministry of Defence.

It still offers much better protection than most of the products we tested, and the coating seems tough. It was the first sample to show rust reappearing, and by the end of the test period the protection had almost completely disappeared from the unpainted side, and was starting to reappear on the other face too. These stop reaction in the metal using special ingredients, which neutralise the corrosion and allow you to paint over it. It has adhered well to the new Kurust surface, it does not chip or knock-off so a big thumbs up there.Do you have some really rusty metal that you want to paint but you think it may be a little too rusty, even for something like Hammerite? Using the brush in the cap apply directly onto the rusty area, working well into any pitted areas, corners and edges. By brush: apply directly to the rusty area, working well into heavily pitted areas, corners and edges.
