Can Rust Converter be applied to a non-rusty surface?
No. Rust Converter should only be applied to the rusted areas, not the whole surface. After the Rust Converter has completely cured, it is recommended to wipe the surface with a damp cloth to remove all excess Rust Converter before you apply the oil-based paint. Rust Converter will glaze coat the non-rusted areas causing the paint not to adhere to those areas as well.
