Does ACF-50 stop rust?

ACF-50 outperformed every product I could compare it with. Interestingly, while only a thin film is needed to work, I did find that the very best protection was given by the little spray bottle that comes with the 950ml size – the steel with this thicker coating is still rust-free after almost six months outside.

Does ACF-50 wash off?

No water means no corrosion, period. And that’s just the start of it. ACF-50 stays in place for as long as a year, actively spreading, sacrificing itself to keep corrosion at bay.

Is ACF-50 safe on paint?

Don’t put it on painted panel surfaces. No need to, ACF 50 is best used on bare metal, plated or even painted engine parts and frame, just in case there is a weak point in the paint, cos rust will find it. But wouldn’t use it on the tank or fenders.

How long does ACF-50 last?

12 months
When applied ACF-50 forms an ‘Active’ ultra-thin clear film that will kill any existing corrosion cells and will protect your bike against new corrosion forming. On areas such as switches or under the tank and seat, one application will last up to 12 months. Other more exposed areas will need topping up more regularly.

What is the best anti corrosion spray?

1. Editor’s Pick: Rust Converter Ultra. Rust Converter Ultra is a highly rated, affordable, and easy-to-use solution to existing automotive rust problems.
2. CRC White Lithium Grease Spray.
3. WD-40 Specialist Long Term Corrosion Inhibitor.
4. Dupli-Color Exact-Match Scratch Fix.
5. Fluid Film Protectant and Lubricant.

Does ACF-50 contain silicone?

ACF-50 remains physically and chemically effective for up to two years. It is important to emphasize that ACF-50 is also an excellent lubricant but does NOT contain any wax, resin, silicon or Teflon… compounds that can gum up mechanisms, block drain holes, or trap moisture to cause corrosion.

Is ACF-50 waterproof?

ACF-50 is also waterproof, a massive benefit over other multi-use sprays, where repeated application is necessary to ensure ongoing protection. ACF-50 has a unique composition that creeps under water droplets and actively pushes moisture away.

Is ACF-50 safe on electronics?

ACF-50 (Anti-Corrosion Formula) is an aerospace product that is now available to motorcyclists. Its aviation approval is MIL-SPEC 81309 Type II and III, which means it is approved for ferrous and non-ferrous metals, electrical systems and electronic components.

Can you use ACF-50 on plastics?

It is also excellent on black plastic trim without leaving the residue of silicon. It will protect electrical joints, plugs and components and prevent corrosion causing high resistance joints.

What can I spray to prevent rust?

WD-40 Specialist® Corrosion Inhibitor 6.5 oz. WD-40 Specialist® Corrosion Inhibitor is an anti-rust spray ideal for preventative maintenance and use in extreme environments such as high humidity. It provides non-drying protection that stays where you spray it.

How do I protect my motorcycle from salt?

Using anti-corrosion products like ACF50 or XCP Rust Blocker will protect your bike from salt-accelerated corrosion. These products coat the vulnerable parts with a fine film which acts as a barrier to prevent oxidisation taking place.

How does Scottoiler FS 365 work to reduce corrosion?

Scottoiler FS 365 works in a number of ways to reduce corrosion. Pure water on it’s own will not cause corrosion, however as soon as it comes into contact with the atmosphere it absorbs acidic gases such as carbon dioxide that do.

How does fasfs 365 prevent corrosion?

FS 365 acts as a corrosion inhibitor in two further ways: In general by supplying a lubricant to all metal surfaces which builds up as you re-apply, protecting them from the air. When it comes into contact with salt it reduces its catalytic effect on the corrosion process.

What is FS 365 complete bike protector and how does it work?

FS 365 Complete Bike Protector is a water-based corrosion inhibitor, the idea is that you spray it on and the water content carries it into all the hard to reach places of the bike, we’re talking every tiny little gap. The water content then evaporates leaving a film of protection on all surfaces. What can I spray it on?

What is FS 365 and how does it work?

So, in essence, FS 365 works as a barrier protector as well as disrupting the chemical processes involved in corrosion. With continued re-application, FS 365 makes cleaning the bike easier and builds up layers of protection.
