Automotive Rust Prevention

Form a barrier against rust right from the get-go using our assortment of DIY products. Eastwood has been involved in automotive restoration since 1978, and we’ve seen far too many cars ruined by tin worms. The best approach is to put rust in check before it can even form in the first place. Think of car rust prevention as insurance that will more than pay for itself in the long run.

We carry the best anti-rust products that will keep metal fresh, clean and free of iron oxide. Many of these products were developed by the house R&D guys based on our own experience of what works and what doesn’t. Other companies like Kroil, Berkebile and Kano have their own rust prevention solutions we simply can’t improve on. Everything we sell has a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee — that’s how confident we are you’ll be rust-free.

Stop Car Rust Before it Starts

Get advanced metal protection at an affordable price by shopping at Eastwood. We’ve come up with several coatings that form an impenetrable barrier against water, road salt and other things that can cause rusting. Eastwood Heavy-Duty Anti-Rust and Internal Frame Coating are a high-end solution for areas such as inner doors and chassis tubing. Order them in spray can form or use our aerosol nozzle to reach into these spaces. For external parts, we recommend self-etching primer or our Rust Encapsulator Plus, both of which can be painted over with a topcoat.

What about hardware and fasteners? For those, we recommend Kroil Penetrating Oil. It was originally developed to loosen stubborn rusted hardware — but if you apply this oil before adding the fasteners, it will prevent rust from forming, too. These are just some of the ways we work to keep rust away. For expert tips on rust prevention, visit the Eastwood tech library or call us seven days a week.

The best way to treat rust is to stop it from ever forming in the first place. If you're working with clean, bare metal that has no spots in sight, Eastwood rust prevention products will keep it that way. We've seen tin worms ruin way too many good cars and motorcycles, so we've come up with a number of ways to keep metal fresh. Put our coatings and tools to use on new builds, restorations or daily commuters that you want to last.
