Hello,
Have rusty metal rail on my terrace outside. It is really in a very bad rusty condition (rust has penetrated badly) on the top flat rail particularly, not as bad on uprights which are painted white.
Hope this is making sense!
Anyway, the whole terrace and adjacent basement steps and wall are going to be renovated within the next couple of years so don't want to spent huge amounts of time or money putting it right. But need to do something as it is an eyesore.
I sanded it down, treated it with special anti-rust paint, and then re-painted it three years ago but the effects didn't last long and it took ages and ages and involved a huge amount of effort and mess.
Is there an alternative relatively quick and easy solution out there that would solve the problem until the whole thing is pulled out and replaced?
Thanks in advance for any ideas/advice!
