How does Rust Bullet compare to an Epoxy Primer?
An Epoxy Primer is not an anti-corrosive coating and will not furnish the protection provided by Rust Bullet. Rust Bullet coating penetrates and dehydrates rust, trapping the rust in the coating’s resin matrix, then forms a rock hard, protective shield that defends the surface against corrosion and abrasion for many years. If an epoxy finish is desired, and the existing surface is an epoxy finish, scrape off any loose rust and epoxy coating, rough-up the remaining tight epoxy with 100 grit sandpaper prior to applying Rust Bullet, then re-apply the epoxy coating over the final coat of Rust Bullet. Please note: For best results, the surface should be prepared down to bare metal. Rust Bullet works best when it is in direct contact with rusted or clean metal.
