Nice way to unrust your exhaust manifold.

I got real handy with a can of Extend by Loktite spray rust converter. I started by going over all the rust spots under my truck and then painting with Duplicolor Black bed paint. Underside looks great.

Then while playing under the hood I started spraying parts of my new Cummins that started showing signs of rust. I oversprayed and hit the exhaust manifold. After a day of running .. the spots that I oversprayed turned jet black.. looks great and beats paint that burns off. I need to buy more and then I'll report on durability of this new finish.

Picked up the Extend at Home Depot in the paint depeartment. Blue can.
