Anti-Rust Guide for Malmesbury Homes

Rust on gates, window frames, farm equipment and metalwork is a persistent maintenance challenge in the Swartland. The combination of winter rain, extreme UV and - for properties near the West Coast - some salt air exposure creates conditions where unprotected metal corrodes faster than in more temperate climates. Never paint over rust. Remove all rust to clean bare metal. Apply zinc-phosphate primer. Apply hard enamel topcoat. For agricultural equipment and buildings in direct sun, UV-resistant topcoats are essential - standard enamel degrades rapidly in the Swartland's extreme UV environment. Inspect annually and touch up chips immediately. See our agricultural painting guide.
