How to rapidly remove rust stains from paintwork
We've tested Benz Oxy Cleanze rust removal gel on household, commercial and marine painted surfaces with excellent results.
We encountered no undesirable bleaching or additional staining when used on various types of paint including exterior masonry paint, single-pack marine coatings, two-pack marine gloss and enamel.
We tested Oxy Cleanze rust removal gel on all these painted surfaces with excellent results before offering it for sale. That said, because the chemical formulations of paint are continually changing, always treat a small, inconspicuous test patch first.

Where do rust stains on paintwork come from?
You'll find that common stains on painted window sills often come from metal objects left on the sill for a period of time, such as a key in the photo below.
We applied Benz Oxy Cleanze and allowed it to work for 2 hours at 5 ℃
After only two hours the marks have gone.
This is what it looked like after we rinsed the residue off and allowed the surface to dry.
