Mipa silicone remover in liquid format and Mipa silicone remover spray remove wax, grease and silicone before sanding or coating. Clean again after sanding so dust and fingerprints do not sit under the new finish.
Guided Shopping · rust spot repair
A rust spot must be cleaned back to a stable surface before any cosmetic paint work starts. Epoxy primer protection, suitable filler, primer preparation, basecoat and clearcoat help rebuild the panel in the correct order.

Mipa EP Primer Surfacer with the matching EP hardener and EP thinner gives direct adhesion and corrosion protection on prepared steel, aluminium or zinc. It is the stronger primer method for bare or sensitive metal.
Mipa P 50 glass fibre filler supports stronger filling on rougher damaged areas, while Miparox anti rust spray helps protect cleaned local metal before the repaint build continues.
Mipa P 99 Multi Star fills and finishes metal repair areas before primer. It is useful when one repaired panel needs a level surface rather than only a scuffed existing finish.
Mipa BC Ready Mixed Two Layer Basecoat creates the matched colour layer on the prepared panel, while Mipa BC Thinner VDG supports the spray viscosity required by the BC system.
Mipa 2K HS Clearcoat CC 8, Mipa 2K HS Hardener HS 25 normal and Mipa 2K Thinner Normal V 25 form the gloss and protection layer after the basecoat has flashed.
The MP sanding block keeps hand pressure even across the repair area, panel edge and primer surface. A flat block helps avoid waves that become more visible after gloss clearcoat.
Remove loose rust, failed paint and weak edges until only a stable repair surface remains. Do not paint over active rust or loose coating.
Remove wax, grease, dust and loose contamination from the rust spot. Check whether the existing coating is sound enough to sand, or whether deeper repair work is needed first.
Apply the correct filler only where the panel needs shape correction, then sand with a block so the repair feathers into the surrounding paint without a hard edge.
Key the surface evenly and remove sanding dust before coating. Use guide or colour checking where it helps reveal scratches, low spots or uneven preparation.
Apply the suitable primer or primer filler for the exposed substrate and repair depth, then sand the dried primer until the surface is smooth enough for colour.
Apply the matched colour in controlled coats over the prepared base. Keep the repair edge soft so the new colour can visually blend with the surrounding finish.
Use the EP primer method where the repair exposes bare or sensitive metal and needs corrosion resistant primer before the finishing build.
Use P 50 glass fibre filler for rougher damaged spots that need stronger filling, then P 99 where the panel needs smoother shaping.
Use BC basecoat and CC 8 clearcoat after the repair and primer stages are stable, sanded and clean.
If rust has perforated the metal or returned after earlier repairs, mechanical or welded metal repair may be needed before coating.
