To facilitate application, this rust preventive is usually diluted with solvents. During the application process, the solvent-diluted product is spread over the metal surfaces. As the solvent component gradually evaporates, it undergoes a transformation. The product shifts from its initial liquid state to form a waxy and translucent film on the metal surface. This transition is a crucial aspect of the rust preventive's functionality, as the resulting film provides long-term protection against corrosion for both ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
