Rust reformer encapsulate... what are you folks using?

[spankybear]

I have some rust to deal with on my LMTV. What are you using to stop or whatever?

Ospho. Apply let it dry for 24 turns into paintable service.http://ospho.com/

Ospho is as good as I've found. Very easy to use.

At Home Depot in the paint department they have Prep & Etch at 1/4th the cost of Ospho.​

I just used A Rustoleum product that comes in a spray bottle the other day ate all the rust off to bare metal. It washes off then used a rust reformer paint from them.

Sand down the rust as close to clean metal as you can get it. Apply Ospho. The best way to get rid of rust (if it’s really bad) is to cut out the rusty metal and weld new metal in.

por 15 is the best I have used it will also add strength to metal that is rusted thin.

All I have ever used is POR 15 and have not been dissapointed yet with this product!

I have used POR 15 and it has worked well for me.

I've used ospho. Works ok.

Sandblasting is the gold standard.

I'll tell you what NOT to do. Sandblast inside the cab. Tried that to clean up rusted floorboards on a M1009. Even though I put tarps over most everything, sand still got into every imaginable crack and crevice and trickled down forever.

Needle scale the bad spots followed by wire wheel followed by cold galvanizing spray paint is my new technique for cab interiors.

How well do the rustoleum products at Home Depot work? The inside washer plates on the fuel tank brackets are flaky rust. The frame and body are good, just random bits that are munched up with rust.

I never knew about Ospho until I bought my Hmmwv and the guy I bought it from mentioned it. Mine didn't have a ton of rust but some but i have to say, it is amazing. I wish I knew about it when I had my old 4runner. I bought my gallon at Ace as well, I was lucky they had the larger size at a fair price.
