It is common for both untreated and treated metals to show signs of corrosion after an extended period of time. Typically, this can be found on agricultural equipment, the undercarriage of your vehicle in the winter months, or other miscellaneous equipment.
STA-BIL® Rust Stopper is an aerosol spray that delivers a protective coating for any type of exposed metal, preventing rust and oxidation from forming on the surface. Furthermore, the product can be used on metal where rust has already started, creating a protective barrier that prevents it from spreading.
The aerosol spray also works effectively on snowblowers and snowplows. For example, these machines are constantly exposed to harsh elements such as moisture and salt, which can quickly break metal down. Applying one coat of STA-BIL® Rust Stopper provides a protective layer over the equipment to keep it in excellent shape, no matter how much snow you need to clear.
Similarly, you can also use STA-BIL® Rust Stopper as an undercoating to preserve your vehicle’s undercarriage during the coldest months of the year. Snow, ice, and road salt can cause significant harm to the metal components of your vehicle’s underside. The aerosol creates an effective barrier over these components so you can confidently drive all winter knowing your vehicle is safe from corrosion.
STA-BIL® Rust Stopper also works well to keep agricultural equipment well-lubricated to prevent rust in tractors, combines, harvesters, and more. Apply generously to safeguard valuable farm equipment from corrosion and keep it in great condition every season.
Wherever you have metal, STA-BIL® Rust Stopper will prevent corrosion, stop existing rust at the source, loosen stubborn joints, and provide dependable, long-lasting protection.
Shake well before using. Apply two to three inches away from the surface (if possible) and swipe back and forth to apply an even coat on the surface of the metal.
Removal: High pressure, cold water pressure wash (1,000-3,000 psi) is recommended. A standard, industrial-strength pressure washer will suffice. Can also be removed by warm water detergent wash or with a commercial-grade biodegradable cleaner.
Yes, it will penetrate wherever it is sprayed.
STA-BIL Rust Stopper leaves a caramel-colored coating. If the metal is dark, it may not be as visible. However, if the metal is shiny or reflective, such as chrome, it will more than likely be visible.
In rainy winter conditions we recommend applying STA-BIL Rust Stopper ever 2 months. In dry, less wet climates, apply every 6 months.
STA-BIL Rust Stopper is safe to use on painted surfaces or finishes. However, please keep in mind that this product will leave an oily coating (which is what protects the surface) that can be difficult to remove.
If applied first, Rust Stopper may impede proper greasing on components. However, it will not negatively affect already-greased or lubricated components if applied over the greased or lubricated area.
