Corrosion Inhibitors: Protect Your Vehicle

Sometimes rust spots aren't just rust spots; Corrosion inhibitors prevent serious decay.

Whether you have experience with cars or none at all, you probably know that rust and corrosion are not good news. You know corrosion is terrible for the environment, and likely understand that it can lead to severe damages. If a car is susceptible to corrosion, those inside the vehicle could be in danger. This is especially true when rust finds its way to the frame parts of your car, causing them to snap or crack.

Because the process of corrosion progresses quickly, it's best to act quickly in employing prevention strategies. That's where corrosion inhibitors come into play, protecting most alloys and metals from rust and decay. These inhibitors work by allowing ions and molecules to bind to the surface of your car. This bond reduces electrical resistance and will reduce your vehicle's corrosion rate and increase its lifespan.

An overall benefit of corrosion inhibitors is their ability to reduce damage to your vehicle. As we mentioned above, this could save you and others from possible injuries. Inhibitors can also potentially save you thousands of dollars that might go towards fixing those damages. Think ahead, and consider discussing options with a skilled and experienced technician.

Electronic Corrosion Protection?

Car owners living in wintry climates like Ohio are constantly worried about cleaning road salt off their vehicles at the end of the day, to prevent rust from occurring. There are several ways to prevent corrosion. There is undercoating, spraying a tar-based substance on the exposed parts of a vehicle's underbody. There is dripless oil spray, a wax-like substance applied to the entire body of the vehicle, it hardens once it has dried. There is drip oil spray, and that is the most commonly recommended rust protection. But there is one new, greener method of corrosion protection , electronic corrosion protection (ECP). Electronic Corrosion Module protects the entire vehicle ECP emits a low power, pulse-wave, radio-frequency signal across all sheet metal surfaces of the vehicle. It protects against rust perforation that starts from the inside-out or the outside-in, even if it's caused by stone chips or scratches. The module's electromagnetic pulse-wave is effectiv...

Buffing Q&A: Classy Chassis

Buffing is a commonly misunderstood practice of many professional detailers and dealerships. If you've seen buffing on our list of services and it has made you curious, you're probably not alone in having questions about the process. Here are a few common questions we get about our professional scratch removal service: What's the difference between buffing and polishing? Polishing is generally more abrasive than buffing, however, it is typically required because it levels the surface. Buffing removes the lines created by the brush-like polish and creates a bright, shiny surface. It is the most fatiguing and dangerous part of scratch removal: a good buffing job takes at least two hours, and the buffing wheel moves quickly. This is why it's wise to leave the job up to the professionals. How does buffing work? Before a detailer can start buffing the car, the surface should be nice and clean so that the buffer does not further impede debris into the...
