The way vehicles are assembled makes it possible for rust to form. The speed at which this can happen is dependent on environmental and road surface conditions the vehicle is regularly exposed to. During the assembly process the parts of a vehicle suffer a number of folds and rivet points. This shaping damages the vehicle’s original rust proofing, which means that it is vulnerable to rust formation over time.

A car has many concealed corners in which moisture manages to settle. For example, the inside of doors or the hood, where water gets trapped without being able to evaporate. Rust proofing treatments will protect areas such as the rear fender, the doors and rocker panels.

During winter, the undercarriages of cars are frequently subjected to harsh attacks from sand, salt and calcium being thrown by the wheels. In addition to accelerating the onset of rust, these materials can damage existing rust proofing. Because of this, it is important to treat your car once a year to every two years.
