Bought "Rust Buster" At Tractor Supply today and sprayed it on a battery box I had wire brushed. It seemed to pretty much eat up the rust and for the most part it looks like nice clean matal-my question is what do you do with it now-it doesn't seem like its going to dry-the directions are very vague. Anybody ever used this or got any sugestions let me know..... .Thanks

Yeah, isn't that something - 'Spray on - let dry - surfaces instantly prepared for painting!' It will dry eventually, but not to what you'd probably like. I've found where drips dry as drips, and then I'm scrubbing the thing with a wire brush all over again. Or it stays sticky.

For most (lightly rusted) metal, I spray it on, let the part sit maybe 1/2 hour, then wipe and let air dry. For heavily rusted stuff, I spray, let it sit overnight, scrub with a wire brush, spray again, let sit 1/2 hour, then wipe dry. I've tried soaking parts and it seems about the same as spraying.

I don't know about you but I got some of that stuff on my hands and it was not nice. I protect myself from flying droplets when I'm scrubbing.

There's a couple railroad spikes that I coated and want to apply some other converter-type products to do an exposure test. That TSC stuff is so cheap I wonder how it will hold up so I want to make sure before using it on another project.
