Pictures of Rust Removal on a Volvo P1800

Volvo P1800 After Soda Blasting- Still had rust on entire car

A common problem with soda blasting is that it doesn't take all the rust off. This customer called the experts at Enviro-Safe and asked what we had to offer.

We suggested using our Enviro-Safe Rust Remover to remove the rust and then spray down car with our Metal Shield 1999 to preserve the car over the winter.

The ingenious customer thought about using the "rotisserie" method of applying our product over the entire car. 

Continuous Flow Method of Pumping Our Rust Remover Over Car

Pumping our liquid rust remover over the car using a continuous flow technique enables large parts or surface areas to have their rust removed without using too much chemical.

Note the tarp under the car, the pump and catch basin on the left of the picture and the movable spray hose laying on the car.

The fluid is pumped over the car using the spray nozzle and the fluid flows over the car, onto the tarp and directed into the catch basin.  The pump recirculates the fluid.

Sprayer nozzle that directs the fluid over the rusted surfaces

This is a typical plastic spray nozzle ($5) used to spray flowers, etc.  Note that our chemical does not effect the nozzle.

Simply move the nozzle anywhere on the car and wait till the rust is gone.

Reposition nozzle as necessary.

Internal Pipe or Channel Rust Removal

Rust forms anywhere that moisture may be.  In this case, rust was removed from the insides of channels and piping by flowing our solution through the channels, etc.

Eventually this rust would have rusted through the channels over time.  Rust from the insides-out.

You cant grind rust if its insides of pockets, channels or other confined spaces, but you can use Enviro-Safe.

Rust Remover Coming Out of Frame Spot Welding

If the fluid can "see" the rust, It will be removed.  Even if you cant see it.

Spot welding areas are also a great spot for rust to start and now be easily removed.

Bottom of Car Frame After Removing Rust

The rust has been removed using our powerful concentrate diluted at 10%.  Note all the nooks and crannies that the rust has been dissolved off from.

Waterfall Effect of the Rust Remover Flowing Over the Bottom of Car

This rotisserie method using continuous spray is perfect for accessing all areas of the car.

You don't need a powerful spray of fluid to remove the rust, gently spray onto the surface and let the chemical do the work.

Pool of Rust Remover turning Black

Pool of rust removing fluid turns black when iron from the rust is dissolved into the solution.  This is a visual indicator that lets you know that the solution is almost spent.  We recommend using the solution until it actually stops removing rust.

Enviro-Safe Works Great on and Insides of Rocker Panels

After the rust was removed from the outsides of the rocker panels, the solution was redirected into the insides of the rusted rocker panels.

Totally removing all the rust.  Lets see a soda blasting operation remove rust from the insides of the rocker panels.
