Am from Somalia and I will dedicate my time to better my welding. And I will one day work with you guys
I did a 25 year old boat trailer and top coated with chassis black, and now a few years in and nothing shows rust , all brushed on , only 1 coat. Recently did my truck bed and I can say that it’s been easy to use and for me it’s the only thing I use from now on
Did you clean with a degreaser first? Did you use a metal prep or just scuff it up?
Great info, doing everything to fight the rust up here in the "rust belt".
Thanks for the video
No problem!
In my experience using this product if you take rust down to clean metal with a wire wheel or sandblasting, definitely takes more than one coat to seal everything up or rust will start coming back through if you actually actually drive your vehicle in the weather a few times If it’s not just a restoration project that’s going to be kept in a garage.
Why not just use a High quality paint if you've gotten It down to clean bare metal?
Great product, if you just want a cheap and fast "back to black".
What I'm more concerned with, is minimum mil thickness, and if it's a skinned encapsultor. If you sand skinning ecapsulator, you lose most of the protection. If you're just using it in single stage, it's not an issue... but as a base for paint, it's something customers should know.
Works great, do not use if you ever plan to weld on the object in the future, it will not come off without copious amounts of flapper wheels
We'd also recommend welding before encapsulating.
Are you supposed to use rust converter first?
No, you can apply Rust Encapsulator Plus directly to metal.
Is it better than Chassis Saver? Considering both products on my project.
We are big fans of Rust Encapsulator around here.
What do you recommend to reduce it.
It can be thinned with xylene up to 10%.
in the video u said 20% ?
Does the left over product in the can harden like Por15 rendering leftovers unusable?
This is good for 2 years unopened and 1 year opened in a controlled temp environment.
Can you put an undercoating over top of it?
Yes you can top coat Rust Encapsulator Plus after 4 hours, either with primer, paint, or undercoating if you prefer.
I don't seem to be able to order all the products, especially not the aerosols, in Europe. Don't you guys have a dealer/distribution network in Europe?

What can I use for a topcoat? An oil-based enamel spray?
You can prime and top coat with whatever you want. This can get spray paint, primer, and base/clear if you want.
We just sprayed bedliner over it recently: ua-cam.com/video/ead1tdpcTuU/v-deo.html
Is this the old POR 15?
No it's a completely unique product.
Can this be thinned to get it into small joints or corners? Do you need any primer on top if you paint over it or is there any limit to what kind of paints you can use? Charles
Yes, it can be thinned with xylene up to 10%.
Topcoat able with virtually any high-quality coating - primer wise it would be up to you depending on your application.
For example, we recently coated a frame in Rust Encapsulator Plus then Extreme Chassis Black - we didn't use a primer in between as both were black.
Thank you for your reply, I did find the answer in the FAQ on the website but it took me a while to find it. Have a great week.@@eastwoodco
Project farm needs to test this
Let them know! We do 2000 hours of salt spray testing to make sure it can hold up to whatever you throw at it!
@@eastwoodco need to get his attention and see
My dream company to work for
Is this just oil based paint ?

• Approximate coverage: 96 SQ FT per quart for one coat
• Proprietary additive increases product adhesion to rusted steel substrates- unmatched by competitive coatings
• 1 coat assures maximum protection
• Brush, roller or spray applied
• Paint Gun: HVLP gravity or siphon with a 1.4 minimum needle/nozzle

• Easy to apply
• Topcoat able with virtually any high-quality coating
• Maximum service temp of 350° Fahrenhei
I would like to know the difference between this and POR 15
We don't have access to POR15's chemical compounds but we can tell you Rust Encapsulator seals the metal off from oxygen so it is unable to rust any further AND it holds up to over 2000 hours of salt spray testing.
And also it's ours ya know?
@@eastwoodco thanks!
I saw POR 15 for sale on the Eastwood website so I thought you had bought the formula.
So whats this different from por products
por is more expensive for no more benefits. I ruined a truck’s body repairs using por products, looks good for the first year then breaks off in strips and chips, does not matter how good your prep work is.
We don't know the formulation of competitor products... but this will seal the rust off from receiving any more oxygen and stop it from rusting any further, then can be left or top coated, and has EXCELLENT adhesion properties. We've seen those other guys stuff fail and flake off after a year or so - ours will not do that.
Maybe my tacoma frame..... lmao
Nice add but does it work. How about a unsolicited video
It absolutely works! It's one of our best selling and raved about products.
love how they lie about it not covering the rust then explain that it in fact does cover up the rust, this does cover the rust completely and utterly, saying it doesn't because you guys are to lazy to properly explain it is pathetic
They thoroughly explained it, but let me help you further. By "just cover up the rust" he means that people ask if it "just covers up the rust and the problem, leaving the rust to continue to rust." Then he explains that, no, it creates a barrier that denies the rust oxygen, therefore stopping the rust from rusting further. Do you work for some other tool place or something? I see negative people on here all the time. I've bought quite a few things from this company and so far I've had great experiences. I've also been associated with some of their other services and subscriptions and what not and it's been great. I don't understand the negativity around this company at all.
Are you stupid? Or did you not listen when watching the video? 🤦🏻♂️
I'm sorry... what was your point? It clearly says "rust encapsulator"... not "dissolver" or "converter".... ENCAPSULATOR. It's a polymer coating with a solvent compound that allows the binders to seep into the rust for better adhesion than typical chassis paint. That's it. No more. No less.
Hot take in the comments! Simply put Rust Encapsulator Plus seals off the rust and denies it oxygen so it can't rust any further - encapsulating it so that you have a clean rust free surface to work with.
I live in Texas. Whats this weird red crap over all the metal?
Ahh its a plague that attacks metal in the north... called Rust or Iron Oxide.
@@eastwoodco ah, i think i remember seeing this years ago upon a visit to the not so great state of new york
does it come in white????? i want my truck frame to be ridiculous and white lol
Just like the model T - it comes in any color you want as long as it's black. BUT you can top coat it with whatever color you'd like.
