Preserving VX body

[VR4-Quest]

Unless damaged, scratched, stone chipped, etc. Who ever replaced my windshield scratched the paint at the top of the windshield, now there is rust under the top weatherstripping, the electronic inhibitor might be good insurance!!! Let us know how it works out.

I made a major mistake with my 92 Amigo. I coated the undercarrage with rubberized under coating and the poor thing rusted bad. At the time we coated a brand new Astro van too and that rusted out bad too. I figured it just trapped the moisture in. I should have just left them alone an I would have been better off. I'll never use that stuff again. As for the electronic rust inhibitorI didn't think they worked?

I am not sure if they work either...

But I know the Queen Mary parked down in Long Beach, has a low voltage DC current tied to it, to prevent rust and keep mollusks from adhering to it...

I wonder if it works the same way?



I guess you won't have to worry about barnacles growing on your VX

They work great in metal buildings and ships because they're grounded to the land and sea. From what I've read, they can never work in vehicles without being grounded. It could be just another one of the thousands of products sold that do absolutely nothing.

I thought the zinc coating was on our body panels under the cladding only. If you get a rock chip down to bare metal it will rust. When I had hood damage from a deer, where there were creases and paint missing it rusted in 1-2 days.
