Can this product be used for a car rust repair (that will be followed by body filler and spray paint?)

I would use the specially formulated paint products for rust repair. Unless you just want to experiment? If so, good luck, let us know how it goes? When I repair rust on my car it is so much work I would never use a product made for a completely different purpose. But hey, if it's an art car or something? Have at it.

No, this is a rubbing compound. It won't function as a body filler material. No strength or body when dry hardened.

It will work, for awhile. Fiberglass is not the right way to repair metal. Regardless of which fix you use you need to remove all of the rust and the preferred and proper way to repair metal is by welding in new metal. If you fiberglass patch it will not last. This technique is used by low quality shops that simply want something to look good long enough to sell it to some sucker.

I would think that it would since it's a spray on flexible sealant. I know it doesn't work where it would come in contact with gasoline, but it worked fine when I used it to repair the back of my riding mower seat that had split. Duct taped it & sprayed the sealant over it. I would suggest contacting Rust-Oleum.T Beck, Lexington, NC

I wouldn't use it to cover that, since rust will spread. It's to cover parts so they don't get heated up.

Yes especially if it is an alloy box but if the box is made of wood you might want to seal and prime it with the high temperature primer first and make sure that there are no cracks before you go over it with the rust oleum high temp paint, for best results!

Yes, If applied correctly it will "kill" the rust, thereby stop the spreading of rust. It will NOT stop other, surrounding, areas from rusting. Only properly treated areas will have protected, rust free metal. Top coating with a quality paint is essential.

I bet it can...but the soft nature of Plastidip may not add much if anything to it. Why not just go with a spray paint low gloss clear coat? it will be more durable in the contact wear areas imo.

Yes....The Permatex Rust Treatment works great. It blackens the rusted metal and is ready for painting. I have been using this brand for over 25years. It has good results. A very good primer for painting.

I used this product on vinyl of a car seat. I got good results with a repair that is strong and stable. I think it would work for what you intend to use it.

I haven't tried that. This product is a powder, kind of like barkeepers friend, comet, baking soda, etc. It's a mild abrasive, a polish, and there are polishes specifically for buffing cars etc, I'd probably go with an automotive product just to be sure.

I don't think so. I used it on a gas tank on my motorcycle and it only took off the surface rust but not the think stuff. I soaked it for two days but no luck. Hope this helps you.

Yes, I think so. This is a rust reformer product that is probably not for high temperatures. Your high temperature paint is only as good as the base upon which it is used. This is informed opinion. Contact the manufacturer for their answer.

I have used this product to remove BMW brake dust, which, as you likely know, can be black, thick and gritty. You spray this stuff on (I have a BMW 325xi), it turns color in about 5-7 minutes. Then give it a gentle brushing with a nylon-bristle brush, and hose it off. Done. The other wheel cleaners I have tried are a joke compare to this stuff, but it's relatively expensive. I can't tell you whether it would remove rust, although I doubt it.

Yes I think you would have to paint but being black maybe not Either way you can try it and it wont hurt anything. My truck is white and the cab corners rusted. Other than that it looks perfect. I'm having it painted this summer but in the meantime I used this product to try and stop the rust from further damage and then covered the corners with an adhesive black film. It matches my wheel flairs that cover the rust on my fenders. I used this product before i put them on. All told it really improved the look but the rust stop by itself wouldn't have been enough to get it where I wanted it

Sure, if it is fiberglass. This product is not designed for paint on metal.

You sure can. Highly recommended. It worked wonders for my jeep with underbody rust
