October 26, 201510 yr comment_3348 Does anyone have an idea why rust seal would delaminate shortly after application. We have used and sold hundreds of pints, quarts and gallons and never had a problem. All steps to clean, rust blast and seal were followed so not sure what could have happened.

October 26, 201510 yr comment_3349 As with most coatings, RustSeal reaches full/maximum adhesion when it is fully cured. It is always best to wait to check adhesion until at least 24 hours after the application of your second coat (or final) of RustSeal. Also, excess humidity can cause adhesion issues. If you have excess humidity, thin the RustSeal 10% with the KBS #1 Thinner. To what are you applying the RustSeal?

October 26, 201510 yr comment_3351 The other suggestion would be to let the RustBlast (full strength) etch (keep wet) etch the surface for longer than the minimum of 30 minutes. It is important to allow the RustBlast enough time to etch the surface creating the ideal surface profile for the adhesion of the RustSeal. Also, be sure to check out the complete directions for RustSeal and the RustSeal Fix-It Guide.
