Refinishing wrought iron patio furniture

That is not wrought iron furniture. It is powder coated steel. But anyway, Any rust issue is best cleaned by sandblasting. However the expanded metal could get winnowed down and eat a hole in it if not careful. The rust will come off quickly but the powdercoating will be little harder. Once you get it clean paint it pretty soon as it will rust up again pretty quickly.

ive done projects like this a few times. I always want to sand blast but it's expensive. What ive done is wire brush as much of the rust and flaky paint as I can. A flapper disc works even better.

After that I pressure wash it, let it dry, and either brush or use my airless paint sprayer to apply two coats of Rutoleum Rust Metal Primer (oil based). Then I spray two coats of Rustoleum oil based gloss black enamel. It may take more coats if brushing. The airless lays down a lot of paint.

It takes a bit of work but the coating lasts for a very long time.

If it is an expensive quality set, get in powder coated. If cheap set, wire brush, spray rust primer then paint
