Re: Duro Extend Rust Treatment

I'm not sure who sells it. I got a small container of it some time ago but I'm not sure where I got it. I haven't used it yet. It is made by Loctite and their website lists it’s uses as pipes and valves, fittings in refineries, tankers, power plants, domestic and commercial heating/cooling plants,trucks, trailers, storage tanks, fences, guard rails, conveyors, supports, overhead cranes, booms, floor gratings, ductwork outdoor advertising sign supports/frames, municipal and highway sign posts and frames,bulkheads, overheads, decks, hatch covers, stacks on ships (topcoat with appropriate marine paint), agricultural equipment, harvesters, plows, discs, tractors, corn pickers, snow removal equipment in highway department maintenance yards, paper mills, chemical plants, steel mills, utilities for maintenance of pipes, tanks, support steel, valves, castings and stampings before final machining.<br /><br />Sounds like it might be right for boat trailers.

Re: Duro Extend Rust Treatment

I used the duro extend or whatever they called it, when it first came out, about 22?? years ago.<br /><br />Hopefully it has imprived since then, because it wasn't that good. It slowed down the return of rust, but it still came back. Surface was sanded, cleaned, applied, primed , and painted over.<br /><br />Its supposed to stop rust dead in its tracks, but it came back in the same places.<br /><br />Also, it is not a hard finish, and can't be sanded smooth to give you an auto type finish. It ends up looking kindof like you took a touch up brush to it.<br /><br />Just my experience, maybe I did it wrong.
