Why FerroGuard IC

Stop Rust Before It Starts

Advanced corrosion inhibitors form a protective barrier on metal surfaces, preventing oxidation in harsh environments.

Multi-Surface Application

Effective on steel, iron, aluminum, and mixed metal assemblies. Ideal for automotive, marine, and industrial use.

Long-Lasting Protection

Durable film-forming technology provides months to years of rust prevention depending on exposure conditions.

Simple Spray-On Coverage

Aerosol and bulk spray options reach seams, welds, and cavities that brushes miss.

Where Rust Strikes First

Anywhere bare or coated metal meets moisture, salt, or chemicals — we protect it.

  • Automotive undercarriage
  • Trailers & farm equipment
  • Marine hardware
  • Structural steel
  • Fencing & railings
  • Tools & machinery

The Science of Rust Prevention

Professional-grade formulation backed by decades of coatings experience.

Corrosion Inhibitors Active inhibitors interrupt the oxidation reaction at the metal surface.
Salt & Moisture Barrier Repels road salt, sea spray, and condensation year-round.
Penetrating Formula Wicks into seams and existing surface rust to stop further spread.
Topcoat Compatible Works as a stand-alone film or primer under compatible topcoats.

Frequently Asked Questions

Specification Questions

What surface preparation does the spec require?

SSPC-SP6 commercial blast with a 2–4 mil profile for new or heavily corroded steel. For maintenance overcoating of sound, tightly-adhered rust, SSPC-SP3 power-tool cleaning is acceptable with a reduced-warranty note. Chloride verification below 7 µg/cm² is required in salt-exposure service.

How is coverage and film build estimated?

At 100% solids, one gallon yields 1,600 mil-sq-ft — about 27 sq ft at the 60-mil exterior spec. We provide takeoff worksheets that convert structural tonnage or surface area directly into material quantities.

How long is the outage window?

Gel is measured in seconds and tack-free in minutes, so masking and overspray control usually drive the schedule, not cure. Most equipment returns to service within 2 hours of final pass; full film properties develop over 24 hours.

Who can apply it?

Approved contractors with plural-component spray equipment and heated hose capability. We maintain a contractor network and will refer applicators in your region, or qualify your in-house crew if you own a rig.

How is the material priced?

By drum set, with project pricing on volume. Contractors and distributors receive wholesale schedules; owners typically buy through their applicator. Send square footage and exposure category for a budget number.

What service life should we model?

In atmospheric service at spec thickness, plan maintenance inspections at year 10 rather than repainting cycles at year 3–5. The membrane does not chalk-fail like thin-film systems; end of life is mechanical damage, which is spot-repairable by grinding the edge and respraying.
