I'm repainting my siding and in a few places there are nail heads with a bit of surface rust. How do I prep these for painting? They are too hard to remove and replace with galv. nails.

Use the drill bit available on nailheadgone.com. Best way to deal with nail heads. |

Best way to deal with nail heads. hit them with a brush-full of "extend" rust converting primer, then paint over them. Knock off as much rust as you can first. Extend was recommended 18 years ago when the question was first asked. If it's still around, it must be good. ;-) Personally, I prefer Extenze. Of course, it hurts a bit when I knock the rust off. |
