Rust Bullet, POR15, Wasser: Product Comparison

Rust Bullet is proud to inform its customers that its products have been awarded unprecedented two US Patents for its superior technology and environmentally friendly rust preventive products. With this endeavor, Rust Bullet has left competitors like POR 15 far behind in the quest for rust prevention. No other coating on the market has anything like this to back them up. One of the differences is that Rust Bullet simplifies rust prevention by eliminating the need for extensive surface preparation, simply ensure the surface is clean and dry, and start painting. No need to remove all the rust from the surface, just paint over it!  Rust Bullet coatings can be easily applied to a metal surface either by brush roll or spray.  There is also no requirement of a topcoat or an under coat which reduces the overall time and cost. While products like POR15 simply provide a coating on the metal surface, Rust Bullet coatings are specifically designed to penetrate to the metal surface, dehydrate the rust, rendering it inert, and literally kills the rust. This feature helps in better rust prevention for the substrate and attacks rust right at the root level thus offering better longevity and protection. A third big difference is all Rust Bullet Coatings are UV Resistant. Other products like POR15 require a topcoat as their rust inhibitors are not UV resistant.  Rust Bullet Coatings are also more environmentally friendly as compared to other coatings in the market. Our Coatings are developed to emit lower emission which makes them more sustainable. All Rust Bullet Coatings are free from heavy metals, zinc, chromates, and other harsh chemicals. Rust Bullet continues to ensure protection for both your assets and the environment.

* Application Step means a surface preparation, or the application of a required component.

** EXTENSIVE PREPARATION COSTS to total cost of product depending on a variety of techniques, including: Sand Blasting, Needling, Heavy Scraping, and Chemical Treating. In addition to the high cost of preparation, the containment and disposal of the waste created by these extensive preparation procedures in order to comply with EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) requirements,could be far greater than the initial cost of the product.

NONE OF THESE EXTENSIVE PREPARATION PROCEDURES ARE NEEDED FOR RUST BULLET, SO THESE SUBSTANTIAL COSTS DO NOT APPLY.
