Rust paint
Re: Rust paint
POR15 only bonds to rusty metal. If you only have light rust, and remove most of the red oxide with a wire brush or sandpaper, then apply POR15, it'll peel right off. It almost has to have a nasty pitted surface to really adhere. Maybe it's just me, but most of the places I used it after scrubbing away the worst of the rust, it just peeled off later. Rattle-can Rustoleum seems to work nearly as well, assuming the area isn't something that has to look fantastic.
