Evening all, been asked to advise/price up the job pictured below. The beads are all rusting through on 5 windows 1 door. All have bands around. For me the best solution is hack out , re-bead with pvc and finish with a new band. I think this will be pretty pricy. I was wondering if anyone had any other solutions. I vaguely remember seeing a decorator fixing this problem once years ago but cant remember his course of action. The render is solid so Ive considered removing paint, pvc bead over the top of whats there but would the rust still bleed through. Any thoughts please :RpS_thumbsup: @Rigsby @owls @essexandy @keithuk @DavetheDog

problem solved.........cheers Arti :RpS_thumbsup:
 
is there not paints that would cover it , oil based with stain proofer ?


just thinking out loud!!
 
not much help i know but wish i had thought of this threads title as a forum name :RpS_thumbup:
 
Hammerite will cover strait onto rust, then plastic bead over n render, or nip off points / tips of rusty beads with mini grinder and plastic bead n render over ? unless hammerite or rust eat paint will be smooth enough finish to match with finished colour paint ?

That was my first thought Keith and that's what I'll be quoting for. I just thought I'd ask if anyone had a solution which might save the client some cost. She is a widow and I think her late husband used to care if these things. Thanks for replying bud :RpS_thumbsup:

Don't be giving Keith all the credit. Cos clearly my solution is the best and most cost effective :)
 
Yours was best option by far and I'll be putting forward to client....when can you start? :thumbup:
 
Try Jenolite from your local car parts shop. Scrape paint off beads and paint on the Jenolite. Then re paint. It may look a bit scabbie but if the customer wants to have a cheap solution.....Let them decide

failing that, get a time machine off ebay and go back and use SS beads

its not the perfect solution but cheap and cheerfull. (£5). Do one window and see what she thinks. I've used it over rusty re bar, it solidifies and will make bead look a bit rough but hey, does she want to spend £500/£1000 on rendering.
Johnio, if she's fit Ive got 1st dibs :RpS_laugh:
