Basic application instructions.
RUST DESTROYER®, RUST KNOCK OUT®
Brush, Roller, and Spray can apply both products. Our
specification calls for a 3-mil dry film thickness. Since the solids
by volume are 41% the WET paint to be applied is 7.5 mil. (1mil equals
.0254MM). Please note if you do not get that thickness, the products
will NOT work properly. To be sure that you have the proper thickness
use a micrometer to measure mil thickness.
Spraying Instructions:
The following information was obtained form the industrial
technical service group is for spraying
RUST DESTROYER ®, RUST KNOCK OUT ®
Equipment, airless spray with a 17 tip opening =. 017
in USA measurements, which equals 432MM. Using an airless spray at
2,500 to 3,000 PSI will atomize the products evenly.
.
For portability and easy use the equipment recommended is GRACO Ultramax
ST 495 This is a portable unit for 1 and 5 gallon containers. But
it MUST BE tested first. All you need is to be bale to plug into en
electrical out let. This is the cheapest of the line. Cost approximately
$ 2,073.00 Than you can look at the Ultramax ST 695, for $ 2,958.00
or Ultramax ST 795. for $ 3967.00 They all do the same thing. The
higher the model number the bigger the machine, and the more heavy
duty so it should last longer.
Also keep in mind that you lose coverage per gallon
because of spraying. It is because you have wind, and the product
will “bounce off” the surface. Additionally, some surfaces
absorb more than others.

please go to the link below for the manufacturers web site. If you
are thinking of purchasing equipment, I am sure they will be happy
to provide you with all information and a demo.
