Rust Prevention

Rust Prevention

- Before applying an anti-rust agent, thoroughly clean the areas to be coated with a steam cleaner, etc., and let dry.

NOTE: Waxoyl may be applied to wet surface.

- Spray an anti-rust agent sufficiently until the excess amount oozes out when filling, the doors, etc. Wipe the excess agent with a clean rag dampened with light oil.
- Do not spray an anti-rust agent to the brake hoses, brake wheel cylinders, brake drums, exhaust muffler and its related parts, emission control devices in the engine compartment, ball joint covers, etc. Wipe up spilled agent at once.
- Heat an anti-rust agent to room temperature (36.5 °C) by submerging the container in hot water when outside temperature is below 10 °C.
- Ventilate when spraying an anti-rust agent since it contains a small amount of organic solvent. Keep sparks, flames and cigarettes away.

NOTE: The remaining agent will harden in the passages of the spray gun, making them unserviceable.
