can this be used to restore the inside bowl finish on a rusted toilet - presently removed and dry -

I believe that I remember if you had rust, you needed to treat that first. I would contact the manufacturer for more info, I did not have that problem, but I can tell you it is a GREAT product for painting over bathroom tiles!

Unfortunately, about 6 months after application in my bathtub I got a small peel which eventually turned into a large peel and we ended up replacing the bath tub...... It could have been that I didn't get that area as clean as I should have. Not sure, but I may have to re-evaluate my review. I don't know about a toilet, might be worth a try but I would check with the manufacturer for a definitive answer.

I have no experience with using this on a toilet, but I used it on a kitchen sink and bath tub. As this was the second refinishing (I'd used another product) I paid very close attention to the surface preparation. After a year or more both surfaces were fine. It seems like it would work as long as you don't use harsh bowl cleaners.

I would clean it with a Brillo pad, make sure it's rinsed good and then dry, and then protect the parts where the rust were with some car wax.

Id try something else like Semi-Chrome or Noxon. This is more of a Polish than a rust remover / Chrome Cleaner. Although it may do the trick, you can try it but Id say to buy a can, only if you have other uses for it... this stuff lasts a good bit and works great for shining stuff up.

I am no expert, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. It dries clear and seems pretty easy to apply. I would not be afraid to use it on a resurfaced finish.

We haven't tried that yet, but I think it could be possible as long as you dry it off well. The actual seat upholstery is nylon so that's not a problem, but the coated aluminum could rust if left wet I would think.

I would imagine so but I would test a small spot first using plenty of water,I had some rust stains and calcium deposits on my toilet bowl rim and it got these nasty stains off,I'm quite sure my bowl was also made of porcelain but I would test a small spot first.

I used it on bathroom grout and it restored the tiles to like new. Was very impressed. It's not terribly expensive. Worth a try.

If you are talking about but the inside, it can't be cleaned other than a descaling with vinegar. The outside can be cleaned like new with any good quality copper polish such as brasso or never dull wadding which can be purchased at any hardware store. Do not use abrasive cleaners. Bill

Yes. I've found it works best if you fill the sink or toilet to just above the iron stain and then add Iron Out.

I used it to resurface a bird bath. After it dried if you agitated the water it would create a pile of foam. Neither birds nor the dogs would drink out of it any more. I trust their intuition rather than rustoleum.

You probably could, but, scouring is probably not the recomended method. There are cleaners out there that would do a fairly good job without ruining the finish on the tub. Talk to your hardware store expert. I believe Kaboom may be one of their suggestions. Remember that stains, lime build up an soap scum may take different products to do the cleaning. Good luck!

It's not something I would use alone it would have to be cleaned up some and maybe even filled with a heavy primer. the key behind this produce is it stops the rust through a chemical reaction. This chemical reaction may cause damage to areas with paint, Its a great product but follow the directions closely.

Thank you for your suggestion to use vinegar. I just did and most of it came off. I have to use pumice in the toilet bowls too.

I seriously doubt it. This is an abrasive that removes cooking buildup. It doesn't restore coating.

Possibly. But I am sure the galvanized finish would discolor over time due to exposure to moisture. But if that is the look you are going for, go for it. I would probably still drill a couple drain holes in the bottom or it will rust and rot out fairly fast.

I use these on a porcelain toilet and get stains off ~ I have never used them on rust, however.
