Dinitrol

Post by **lucamarzana** » Thu Feb 12, 2004 7:54 am

Hi,

can someone of you tell me about this product? I have to fix the chassis, welding etc. etc., I won't be able to sand blast it. Someone told me that if I take all the rust away, as much as possible, and then use Dinitrol I will obtain a good result. Is it true? I asked for information but sounds like if this product is not sold in Italy, so..........thanks!

Luca

Hi Luca, Dinitrol is good but most people prefer Waxoil, but first you need to treat any rust that is left with something like Jenolite or a similar rust converter and then apply one of the above, if you look through the postings this sort of thing has been covered before.

Thanks Kevin,

well, I did a little search and....there are lots of rust-converters...maybe I shouldn't but....is it possible to know whichare the most used ones?
Useless to ask someone here, in Italy, most people may think that Dinitrol is a sort of toothpaste...

Hi Luca,

The best rust converter I have come across here in the UK is called JENOLITE.

Its a brush on liquid that is available in big tins that changes the rust to a dark blackish colour when its treated.

It should be available online somewhere !
