The Process of Rust Removal

Preparing the Surface

1. Clean the Area: Remove any dirt or debris from the metal surface. This is important because dirt and grime can prevent the rust remover from reaching the rusted areas effectively.
2. Apply Rust Remover: Apply the AC Pro rust remover gel to targeted areas. Apply according to the instructions. Ensure that the entire rusted area is covered with the product. Click Here
3. Time to Act: Allow the product time to penetrate and break down the rust. The duration for this will depend on the product's formulation and the extent of rusting. Let it rest for a while then spray the AC pro rust remover spray on the entire area to protect the metal from further rust. 

Removing the Rust

1. Scrub if Necessary: For stubborn rust, a light scrubbing might be needed. Use a brush or a scouring pad for this purpose. However, be gentle to avoid scratching or damaging the metal surface.
2. Rinse Thoroughly: Wash off the product completely to prevent any residue. Residue can not only be harmful if left on the boiler but can also attract more dirt and moisture, leading to further rusting.
3. Dry and Inspect: Ensure the area is dry to avoid further rusting. Inspect the metal for any missed spots. If any rust remains, repeat the treatment in those areas.
