How to make liquid plastic to coat metal

A layer of plastic on a metal surface protects it from corrosion better than any paint, since it does not peel off or crack. Application of the polymer can be done not only in production, but also at home. Liquid plastic for this is easy to make yourself.

Materials:

  • acetone;
  • ABS plastic.

Manufacturing process and application of liquid plastic

To coat the metal, a liquid polymer is prepared, consisting of 80% acetone and 20% ABS plastic. As the latter, various recyclable materials from this material can be used. Cases for office equipment, bottles for household chemicals, children's toys, etc. are made from it. Recycled ABS plastic is cut or broken into small pieces.

Dissolution is carried out in a tightly closed glass container. In about an hour, the plastic will completely dissolve.

The composition is applied to the metal with a brush like regular paint. Drying occurs in 2-3 hours. It is best to apply 3 layers. This coating does not paint the surface, but very reliably blocks the access of moisture to it.

It does not go away in cold or heat. This is the best home corrosion protection. If necessary, the top of the plastic can be painted with regular paint, for decorative purposes.

    What's the point of covering metal in the air? The natural patina that covers the structure is no worse!!! Now, if it’s in the ground or in a basement or subfloor, then coverage is necessary. but the profile will still rot from the inside!!! please take this into account!!! with uv Victor is 59 years old. welder.

    It will be even cooler if there is plastic (for the concept, these are air conditioner housings. shelves in refrigerators. old electric kettles. housings from old monitors) and xylene. I make it in a TRANSPARENT mayonnaise bucket. white may dissolve. pour xylene and break the plastic into a bucket. Stir occasionally. in a day, or even better, a couple can be used.if thickly add xylene. you can change the color. take a gel pen and add gel by color
