Rust Bullet Automotive Uses

Easy Application, Little or No Surface Preparation!

“A high performance coating for steel and iron corrosion control. A single component, hybrid-moisture cure urethane coating that when applied does not form a film immediately, but rather it penetrates to combine the rust with the coating all the way down to the original metal surface.”

Rust Bullet Automotive is specifically formulated to provide the smooth finish desired for automotive projects. Rust Bullet’s high-gloss BlackShell, WhiteShell, and DuraGrade Color line have been formulated as the ultimate topcoats for use with both Rust Bullet Industrial and Rust Bullet Automotive. Rust Bullet’s patented Rust Inhibitive Automotive Formula and Rust Bullet’s topcoats are an unbeatable combination.

More Cars are Destroyed by Rust than by Accidents

MOISTURE – Moisture invasion will destroy a vehicle very quickly. Rust Bullet Automotive Coatings, properly applied and cured, for repair or restoration, will provide an impenetrable surface for the ultimate moisture barrier.

CHLORIDES – In the United States alone, in 2009, more than 22 million tons of road salts were used. These salts do not just disappear but become imbedded in the pavement and virtually any vehicle traveling on the roads. A pro-active application of Rust Bullet Automotive Coatings will provide a long-lasting protective barrier against these corrosive elements.

In 2011, a General Motors Service Bulletin was issued regarding improper surface prep causing premature corrosion and rusting. Rust Bullet Automotive and Rust Bullet BlackShell Formulas, applied according to the manufacturer’s guidelines were recognized to be the most effective method of addressing this corrosion issue. The performance of Rust Bullet Coatings during GM’s field trials was the determining factor in the decision to recommend Rust Bullet Products, over the competitors’ products, in their service bulletins. These trials were conducted on customer vehicles in the actual environments in which they will be used.

Efficient corrosion control can be achieved using the most successful preventive strategies at every level of involvement. With little to no surface prep and ease of application, Rust Bullet Products are the most effective pro-active and rehabilitative treatment of automotive corrosion available.

Great product! Prepped frame with Rust Bullet Automotive, then top coated with Rust Bullet BlackShell gloss black. Has been on the truck over a year now and I love it!

We have used a few different kinds of "rust paint" including POR15. Rust Bullet has stood up a lot better over time compared to the others and is easier to work with when doing paint or bodywork. The only downside is that brake fluid will eat it off. Other than that it is my favorite as it doesn't fade as much or chip as easily as the others. So I use only Rust Bullet now!

I started using Rust Bullet Automotive 6 years ago while restoring a 1927 Model T Fordor. It saved many parts from the scrap yard by eliminating the need to have them media-blasted. 6 years later that Fordor and 5 other earlier Model T's have the Rust Bullet rust paint without any sign of failure. I love it!

People tell me that this chassis looks great, and then they ask me who I had powder coat it. I tell them that I just painted it myself with Rust Bullet.

Case Studies

Rust and corrosion are two of the biggest problems that automotive enthusiasts and professionals face when it comes to maintaining their vehicles. Rust can weaken the structural integrity of a car, making it less safe to drive and potentially causing serious damage over time. Corrosion, on the other hand, can cause electrical issues and other problems that can affect the performance of the vehicle.

To combat these issues, many people turn to Rust Bullet as a coating solution. Rust Bullet is specially formulated to provide long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion. It is highly resistant to abrasion, chemicals, and impact, making it ideal for use in automotive applications.

One of the key benefits of Rust Bullet is its ease of use. It can be applied using a brush, roller, or spray gun, and it dries quickly to form a hard, durable surface that can withstand harsh conditions. This means that automotive enthusiasts and professionals can easily apply Rust Bullet to their vehicles without the need for specialized equipment or extensive training.

Rust Bullet is also highly effective at preventing rust and corrosion from spreading. Its penetrating formula allows it to get deep into the metal surface, creating a strong bond that resists moisture and oxygen. This helps to stop rust in its tracks, preventing it from spreading and causing further damage to the vehicle.

Overall, Rust Bullet is an excellent choice for anyone looking to protect their vehicle from rust and corrosion. Its versatility, ease of use, and effectiveness make it a popular choice among automotive enthusiasts and professionals alike. By using Rust Bullet, you can extend the life of your vehicle and keep it looking and performing its best for years to come!
