Finding on the metal, the chemical reaction occurs and the result of this reaction is the oxide of iron and hydrogen.

And since your work machine is in constant contact not only with water and air, but also with chemical reagents (especially in winter) we get rust on our car.

Anticorrosive processing can prevent corrosion on the car.

Modern car body consists of a thin steel sheet on which a thin layer of paint coating is applied.

Any bulk or scratch leads to a violation of the layer of paintwork and in this place there is direct contact with the environment. The task of anti-corrosion processing is to eliminate direct contact with the aggressive medium.

Anticorrosion treatment types

There are many methods of anti-corrosion processing, in this article we present the following:

  • to effectively repulsion water from the surface of the machine, the protective coating of Ceramic Pro has proven itself;
  • it is good in operation Dinitrol 479 - he has established itself in the form of protection of the body from corrosion and noise insulation;
  • to avoid the appearance on the body of chips and small scratches - use the carbon type vinyl film;
  • preparing for the Russian Winter, to protect the bottoms from chemical reagents, make a car nise wax;
  • you can advise a very reliable but dear way to protect the car from corrosion - spend galvanizing the bottom of the car;

But the fact is that not all cars have high-quality anti-corrosion processing.

German and Japanese car manufacturers have proven well.

Manufacturers qualitatively cover the bottom and wheel arches with Dinitrol 479, paints and varnish materials have good water repellent properties, high-quality galvania is used. Therefore, cars of these manufacturers and through a quarter of a century on the roads, will give odds to our domestic cars or such as Chinese cars.

If corrosion or rust appeared on the car, the rust converter must be purchased to combat it.

You will have to work hard and carry out the following actions:

  • with the help of sandpaper or grinding disks of medium grain for a drill, it is necessary to clean the damaged part of the machine;
  • you can handle the anti-corrosion composition. Preparations such as WD-40, Rust Killer, Rust Treatment can dissolve iron oxide and degrease metal;
  • after the damaged surface was processed, it is necessary to sharpen it, apply primer, paint and apply lacquer;
