Protect Your Surfaces With Rust-Resistant Coating
Rust-resistant enamels are a type of
special coating used to protect metal surfaces from the corrosion that occurs on metal when iron and other materials react with oxygen and water. These enamels contains additives that are corrosion inhibitors to create a barrier between the metal substrate and any weathering elements, preventing rust formation. Further, some formulations also incorporate UV protection.
Reasons to Use A Rust Arrestor
- As rust forms, it cracks the metal, making the surface weak and prone to failure. However, this unique coating helps prolong the lifespan of metal structures by preventing rust corrosion. This enamel is essential in the home, as well as the construction, marine, and manufacturing industries, where metal components are exposed to harsh conditions. Undoubtedly, rust-resistant enamels create safer and more reliable equipment and metal features.
- Rust-resistant coatings upgrade the appearance of metal surfaces by providing a smooth finish that resists flaking, peeling, and chipping. The smooth finish also helps to maintain the value of machinery.
- Using rust-resistant enamels reduces the maintenance costs of repairs to corroded metal features or parts. By using this coating, builders and companies increase the operational efficiency of their workers and machinery and reduce overall expenses.
- Rust-resistant coatings extends the life of metal features and products, minimizing environmental waste and pollution. For this reason, using rust-resistant enamels contributes to sustainable practices to promote a cleaner, greener future for the next generations.
Top Rust-Resistant Formulas
Rust Arrestor Paint
Rust arrestor paint stops the progression of existing rust on metal surfaces. It usually contains an inhibitor like phosphoric acid or tannic acid, which reacts with the iron oxide in rust to form a stable compound known as iron phosphate or tannate. This compound creates a protective barrier over the metal surface to seal out moisture and oxygen, which are necessary for the corrosion process to continue. It is often used as a primer on metal surfaces, including iron and steel, to ensure a solid adhesion to a topcoat.
Coronado® Rust-A-Void™
As a replacement for the discontinued Rust Scat paint, Coronado® Rust-A-Void™ is an industrial-grade interior or exterior paint available from Benjamin Moore. Its formula protects metal surfaces from rust and corrosion. It is highly durable and excels in harsh conditions, such as extreme weather, exposure to harsh chemicals, or abrasion. Remarkably, it offers protection even over existing paint coatings. Coronado® Rust-A-Void™ Enamels consist of a hardy urethane-modified alkyd resin in gloss, semi-gloss, and satin finishes.
