painting over rust stains
i have rust stains on the masonary paint on an external wall of my house from an old burglar alarm box, which has now been removed.
will a few coats of masonary paint kill off this staining or will it permeate through.
i have thought about painting over the staining with oil based undercoat and finishing off with masonary paint, but i am a little worried that this might peel due to the weather.
any thoughts would be helpful.
