4.0 out of 5 stars Permatex Performs, November 9, 2006

Permatex Rust Treatment is a cost effective alternative to new fenders, tailgates, hoods and nearly any rusted metal surface. With simple spray on application, Permatex stops rust on contact with a bubbling reaction similar to "Alka Seltzer" or Peroxide on an open cut that you can both see and hear. Besides the "proof being in the pudding" so to speak, Permatex dries (after about 3 coats) to a black finish that can be painted over with replacement or touch up paint, or a full vehicle or item paint job. I have used it on the fenders of my truck as well as a wood stove cover plate to convert a fireplace to take a 6" stove pipe. While not reccommended for high-heat, permatex performs to a very pleasing standard. It stops rust for less than half the cost of other alternatives and comes in a simple spray can which leaves no messy paint brushes or rags behind after the job is finished.

The product lived up to its expectation, within a day. The rust on my car turned in to a black stable compound. I haven't top coated on it, but the surface can be painted. I am quite happy that this one worked and stopped that rusty rust.
