New from 3M – the 360 Degree Rust Preventer Spray. This innovative spray is easy to use and helps to preemptively combat rust from the inside out. See more details below.

Official Release:

As anyone who has dealt with the electro-chemical breakdown of a vehicle frame or panel knows, once rust starts, it’s nearly impossible to stop. What begins as a little bubble in the paint at the bottom of a door, or an ominous brown stain on the frame, can quickly become a losing battle with oxidation. 3M Auto today announced the launch of 3M™ Rust Preventer Spray, a one-step solution to preemptively combat rust from the inside out.

Whether prepping to take on winter weather, high humidity, road salt or exposure to other damaging elements, applying 3M™ Rust Preventer Spray to internal auto frames and body panels will help cut out the hassle of retroactive steps to address the inevitability of rust out.

Over time, rust can reduce an otherwise reliable vehicle into one with crumbling piles of red oxide, but the full coverage application of 3M™ Rust Preventer Spray provides preventative protection to typically problematic areas. Rather than disassembling trim pieces or removing weather stripping, the pliable applicator and 360 degree wand inserts easily into small crevices and holes in body work to prevent rust formation in even the hardest to reach areas. You can rest assured your vehicle will be protected from the elements with 3M Rust Preventer Spray.

The first usage occasion for 3M™ Rust Preventer Spray would be upon purchase of new vehicle to provide long lasting coverage. The second usage occasion would be after completing body repair. After body repair is conducted, water drains along the bottom of car doors and rocker panels. The residual moisture that does not clear out entirely can lead to corroding interior rust if not cleaned and dried proactively. To skip this extra maintenance issue, simply insert the sectioned applicator wand into the drain hole and release the aerosol. The applicator is designed to feature an adjustable length and flexible joints that stay connected during application, making it easy for the DIYer to achieve maximum results.

“We take pride in providing our do-it-yourself customers with at-home solutions that combine unparalleled technical engineering and easy-to-use practicality,” said Matt Callahan, Global Marketing Manager Auto Care Division at 3M Auto. “Our 3M Rust Preventer Spray, is designed with innovative chemistry to help Auto DIYers stop rust before it even starts.”
