The best anti-corrosion products for a car

Corrosion is the main enemy of any metal product. The way the world works is that Ferum, that is, iron, really does not like Oxigen, that is, oxygen. This is especially true of car bodies, which experience all the most negative influences of the external environment.

You can protect the metal surfaces of the car with the help of various anti-corrosion agents, or in short - anti-corrosion agents.

What properties should a good anticorrosive have? First of all, it should be said that there are several types of anticorrosives, depending on the surfaces on which they are applied:

• for hidden surfaces - they are applied directly to the paintwork;
• for open surfaces - they process the bottom, wheel arches.

Anticorrosive agents for hidden surfaces should fit well, not destroy the paint layer, create an elastic film, get into all microcracks, and, of course, resist and fight corrosion in the areas covered by it. Such anticorrosive agents are applied as aerosols or rubbed over the surface. They can be based on paraffin or various oil compositions that block the contact of the metal with water and air.

For open surfaces - the bottom, wheel arches - anticorrosive agents are needed, which not only have good adhesion to the surface, but also mechanical strength. As a rule, various mastics based on synthetic resins and bituminous compounds are used for protection. Rubber-based PVC anticorrosives perform very well, they envelop surfaces with durable films that do not crack or peel off under the influence of moisture, small pebbles, and tolerate temperature changes well.

Speaking about specific manufacturers, we can distinguish the following companies that produce similar products:

• Germany - Rand, Bivaxol;
• Sweden - Dinitrol, Noxudol, Finikor;
• Canada - Rust Stop;
• Tectyl and Soudal - Netherlands.

Russian chemical plants also produce anti-corrosion products, such as Movil, an anticorrosive agent that has been very popular for quite some time, since Soviet times, when it was used for lack of a better one. The companies "Khimprodukt" and "VELV" use foreign experience to create effective anti-corrosion protection products.
