surface rust and amatan(sic)
I have stripped and whizzed all the paint from my bus. this has taken time over 3 month period. all bare metal was treated with a rust convertor
amatan I think its called.
The areas done first esp the roof now have light surface rust which I thought would not occur due to the rust treatment.
What I want to know is if i retreat it and undercoat / prime it to what level of tolerance i do need to remove the light surface rust? is it a case
of none? or sanded then treated is OK? Mitchell

Emer- Tan should be painted within 48 hours of treatment, did you do this?
Cheers, Greg
