1.) Water blasting treated with rust inhibitor

Spraying a rust inhibitor in water cleans the metal while preventing it from embedment of chlorides. 2.) After rinsing and blasting with water treated with a rust inhibitor, the metal still needs a final rinse. A ratio of 1.3 ounces per gallon of inhibitor to water will be very effective. 3.) Remove any standing water from the metal and it is important to allow the metal to dry completely. Use something like a leaf blower to quickly remove standing water from the metal. 4.) Avoid re-contamination Dirt, body oil and moisture can all cause rust. Be sure to wear clean rubber gloves when handling metal, and keep away from causes of extra moisture (like morning dew) if left overnight. Remember that rust preventive will not stop rust from happening, it will only give you up to 72 hours to prepare your primer and paint.
