Cost of Corrosion

• The total direct cost of corrosion was determined to be $279 billion per year, which is 3.2 percent of the then U.S. gross domestic product (GDP).

• Indirect cost to the user (society costs) are conservatively estimated to be equal to the direct costs.

Traditional MethodUnchanged for the past 50 years

1. Sandblast 2. Primer

3. One or Multiple Coats

Why is there only limited success?

• Blast is made• Coating application is delayed• Surface is bloomed or microscopic flash rust has developed

before application -- 100% of the time

• Most Corrosion coatings are “Glue-on-to-surface”

• TOPICAL Coatings Perform Optimally At SSPC-SP10 (NACE 2 or S.a 2.5 Surface Preparation)

Rust Grip®

• Minimal Surface Preparation

• Paint Directly on Rust and Firmly Bonded Paint

• Reduce Total Cost of Ownership

How it Works • RUST GRIP uses special low molecular weight solvents

which penetrate deep into the pores, anchoring, swelling and encapsulating the surface.

• RUST GRIP Freezes the electro-chemical reaction by sealing the pores of the metal, stopping water vapor transmission.

• The heavier aluminum metallic's and micaceous oxide add strength to the weakened steel
