electronic rust protection
has anyone tried this and does it work. seems like a good investment if i works. any input is much appreciated
thanks |
I'm not quite sure what principals it works on... I read something about giving the body a polarity to repell salt but not sure.... its at crappy tire right??
|
My buddy swears by it. He has a 2004 Mazda 3 and had one on his 91 5.0, and his 88 Buick. He says they work, I have no experiece with them so I would not know. I may put one on the Stang and see what happends
|
yeh you can get them at "crappy tire" i've heard a few people say good things but its one of those things thats new and most people haven't tried or heard of ( not like you can tell immediatley if it works) but i think i might get one to test out and if it works would be a good investment if not oh well
|
they don't work in a car application. the protection is only in a straight line from probe to probe. It does not disperse through the entire car. They use the same technology on boats to stop the keels from rusting out.
|
This technology is not new. I've heard the trucking industry has been using them for years. I believe they are supposed to stop corosion by introducing an elecrode into the metal preventing it from rusting.

Had mine installed at the dealership before I took delivery... Got a 10 year warranty against rust, Any rusting at all, Including stone chips etc. Been on for 3 years come May '09 and no sign of anything yet... Time will tell whether it works as well as they say and whether they will stand behind the warranty..! :rolleyes:
|
how does it help with stonechips?
|
If the stone chips right through the paint to the metal (exposing the bare metal) then the rusting process will not start, It just stays as bare metal (so they say... I will let you know when I finally get a stone chip..!) :tup

Living in a semi-arid area I don't drive in the rain/snow and it's in a garage so no rust, EVER:biggrin:
