What is rust?

Rust, Corrosion, Metal Cancer--all more properly called iron oxide. It's the stable form of steel. Iron ore, the raw mineral we mine to make steel,  is actually iron oxide. Rust! That's right, steel is made from rust. It spends the rest of its life trying to return to its natural state.

In order to have rusting take place, you need three things: Steel, Oxygen, and Heat. It's just like the three items needed for a fire: Fuel (the steel), Heat (any temperature above freezing), and Oxygen (to support the burning or rusting).

In fact, rust can be thought of as a slow burn, like charcoal, where rust is the ash.

Rust is actually an electron exchange. Steel gives up an electron and becomes rust. It's a process related to electricity. In fact, anywhere two different metals touch, there is an electrical current generated.

Enter Rust Check.

Rust Check has a high dielectric value (electrical resistance) of over 20,000 volts. It resists the electron exchange which greatly retards rust.  In our climate, it slows corrosion by  80-90%.  It takes 8 or 9 years to rust as much as a single year without Rust Check.

A great product is only half the battle. Rust Check is not magic. It won't help where it isn't applied. That's why who rustproofs your vehicle is as important as the actual material used.
