Using it

Surface preparation: remove signs of corrosion with a wire brush or emery paper. If rust cannot be removed, treat the surface with CRC Rust Converter after thoroughly abrading the rusty areas. Clean with CRC Brakleen or a similar degreaser if required, and where possible abrade with disc grinding, wire brush or sandpaper.

Shake the can until the agitator ball is moving freely, then for at least 1 further minute. Apply a number of thin coats with smooth even strokes to a clean, dry surface, holding the can approximately 25cm from the surface.

When finished, clean the valve by turning the can upside down and pressing the button until only pressure escapes. Clean up with mineral turpentine or white spirits.
