Questions & Answers
Can this be used on oven door?
Thanks for the question! Rust-Oleum Automotive Rust Reformer Spray is suitable for metal surfaces that do not exceed 200°F and are not exposed to direct flame or direct food contact. It converts rust into a paintable surface while helping to prevent future rust and corrosion. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15
Can it be sanded after application
Yes, Pete! Rust-Oleum Automotive Rust Reformer Spray can be sanded after it has dried if you need to smooth the surface before topcoating. After sanding, allow the sanded surface to rest for 24 hours before applying your chosen topcoat. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15
Does it work on the underside of a mower?
Happy to help! Yes, Rust-Oleum Rust Reformer Spray is designed for metal surfaces, so it's suitable for use on the underside of a mower deck. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15
I have a 1" diameter rust area on my vanity. I purchased your appliance touch up paint. Is this the right product to go under that?
Rust-Oleum Rust Reformer Spray is designed for metal surfaces and instantly converts rust to a protected, paintable surface. A topcoat can be applied after 24 hours. We would not recommend topcoating with the Appliance Touch Up as that is for the exterior metal surfaces of appliances. We would like to learn a bit more about the surface you are repairing so we can recommend a suitable topcoat. Please call our team at 800-481-4785 for further assistance. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15
