WARNING: Always refer to Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) when handling chemicals and wear
protective equipment as directed. Examples may include but are not limited to respirators and chemically
resistant gloves. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.
WARNING: Always wear protective equipment including eye protection with side shields, and a dust
mask when sanding or grinding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.
NOTICE: Drilling access holes in body panels is not recommended. Drilling holes will break the original paint
finish and promote corrosion.
NOTE: Corrosion protection needs to be restored whenever it is necessary to sand or grind through painted surfaces
or E-coat, or when bare metal repairs are made.
NOTE: Refer to product label for preparation and handling instructions.
1. The surfaces must be free of oil, dirt and other foreign material. Carry out the process in the following
sequence.
1. Thoroughly clean and degrease metal surfaces using metal surface prep to remove wax and
grease.
2. For best results, the vehicle should be at room temperature. Attach the rust inhibitor canister to the
Rust Inhibitor Installation Kit 286-00002.
3. Rust inhibitor should be applied after the welding and refinishing process. Product cannot be
welded through.
