A:  Happy to help, Sue! Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Rust Reformer Spray can be used on a variety of metal surfaces, including a dog kennel. Our recommendation is to leave items in a well ventilated area for one week after painting. This allows for the most complete curing as well as maximum coating hardness. As with any coating product, care should be taken to ensure that accidental ingestion does not occur. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 6

A:  My notes re Rust Reformer from a telephone call to the toll-free number in Oct 2020: "Rust Reformer is a treatment, a chemical change. really just for heavily rusted surfaces. If you overlap onto nearby area not heavily rusted a little bit, that’s probably okay. But don’t spray everywhere that’s not rusted. It can actually cause rust. And don’t use it for the top coat." I also embedded in my notes that the guy who answered my call was really sharp, very knowledgeable. I suggest you call the toll free number and ask which product is right for your project. . . . Uh-oh, I looked for the toll-free number on their website and couldn't find one. They have Live Chat and email. . .
