Eliminating Rust from Metals

Metals that have iron (ferrous) rust when they are exposed to water and air. Chemically, rust is iron oxide and it takes the form of a red brown powder, visible on metal surfaces. Metals that do not contain iron are also vulnerable to oxidation and this process is referred to as corrosion. To ensure the longevity of metals, it is important to prevent rust and corrosion. Timely elimination of rust and shielding the metal against this oxidation process is possible when you use a good rust removing solution.

The conventional way to eliminate rust and prevent it in future is to sand blast or scrape down the damage on surface to bare metal, prime it with a rust-inhibiting primer and then apply multiple coats of paint. But the effects of this technique are not very long lasting. A brush on liquid rust inhibitor proves to be a simpler and more practical solution for fighting rust and preventing it in future.

An ideal brush on rust inhibitor is environment friendly and does not contain materials such as lead, zinc, chromates, acids and/or heavy metals. Being in liquid form, it can also be applied by a roller or spray equipment.
