Rust Protect is a direct-to-rust (DTR), dual-component, surface applied universal substrate that protects a wide variety of ferrous materials, including hard rust metal surfaces from continued deterioration due to naturally occurring threats. Rust Protect dries smooth, creating a strong bridge between rusted metal surfaces and application-specific top coats.
• This low-VOC anti-corrosion solution is made up of 25% cementitious material allowing for adhesion to cement while the proprietary technology also allows for adhesion direct-to-rust and direct-to-metal surfaces.
• Environmentally Stable: Temperature resistance (-80ºF to +500ºF) and maintains flexibility without cracking or peeling, allowing for expansion and contraction of a substrate due to internal pressure changes or external influences.
Uses include:
• Concrete encased metal• Metal stairs and ramps• Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI)• Exhaust systems• Corrugated metal roofs• Rebar• Steel structures• Boilers & Furnaces• Metal doors• Pipe exteriors

Rust Protect has been tested to the following standards:
• ISO12944• ASTM B117-11• ASTM D1654• ASTM D3359• ASTM D4060• ASTM D4541

Superior technology that yields greater returns on your investment
DryWired™ Rust Protect combines two unique performance characteristics, previously thought impossible for a cementitious product:
1. Cement Bonding to MetalRust Protect is 25% cement yet bonds aggressively with nearly all metal surfaces. Adhesion characteristics are maintained even on surfaces that are highly corroded with rust. Rust Protect fulfills the age old desire to coat metal surfaces with an inexpensive yet extremely durable product like cement.
2. FlexibilityFlexible cement? That’s correct. Rust Protect can bend as much as 90 degrees without cracking or lifting when properly applied. This characteristic allows Rust Protect to be applied to “live” surfaces that expand and contract due to internal pressure changes or external influences such as freezing/thawing.

no abrasive blasting is required
DryWired™ Rust Protect’s advanced formula is designed for application directly over hard rust surfaces while maintaining superior adhesion characteristics that are two to three times industry standards.1
The surface only needs to be power washed and degreased prior to application.
This unique performance characteristic results in: • Less prep time• Fewer containment issues• Lower disposal costs• Increased profitability• Greater bid conversion
(1) 2012 pull tests performed by a NACE Certified Engineer, Level 2, demonstrated minimum failure points of 750 psi

No more grinding
The ability to apply Rust Protect directly to hard metal surfaces results in significantly less preparation time and lower labor costs without sacrificing performance.
This reduction in labor costs allows contractors to submit bids that are up to 50% lower than bids using blasting or grinding.
Despite the additional materials expense of purchasing Rust Protect, the much greater offset in labor charges allows the contractor to generate greater profit per job, even when the total bid calculation is lower than a bid using blasting or grinding.

In 2015, DryWired conducted additional pull testing according to ASTM D 4541 standards on non-profiled cold rolled steel. As shown in the table and graph below, DryWired reached a level exceeding 1,000 psi when fully cured after 28 days. Industry standards are 200 psi, which Rust Protect exceeded after only 5 days cure time.
WWW. DRYWIRED.COM
In 2015, DryWired conducted salt spray testing at Exova Labs, one of the world’s largest independent testing companies, on non-profiled cold rolled steel according to ISO standards 12944. This test places a scribe down the center of a 120cm x 90cm coated panel to expose the underlying substrate. The panel is then placed in a chamber where it is continuously in contact with a salt spray solution for 240 hours and 480 hours in salt fog environment. A passing grade results when the coating prevents rust
migration from the scribed area into the area that remains covered by the coating being tested.
The panels coated with Rust Protect passed level “C3-HIGH” for corrosion resistance, thereby making Rust Protect available for use within the European Union as a direct to metal corrosion inhibitor.

case study: fiber reinforced polymer
before after
Problem: A potash mine head frame had structurally degraded from excessive
weathering, UV and wind related abrasion damage.
Previous Solution: None. Traditional repairs would fail within 5 years.
DryWired Solution: Rust Protect on exposed rebar to bond with shotcrete, FRP
wrap for structural repair and top-coated to create a comprehensive finish.
Result: Savings of over $30,000 and 2 weeks time.

case study: PUMP STATION
Problem: The coating on a coastal pump station located on Terminal Island in
Long Beach, CA had degraded from challenging environmental issues.
Previous Solution: A major paint manufacturer’s OEM coating system had
failed faster than expected, resulting in clear-disbonding and corrosion.
DryWired Solution: Rust Protect to coat the completed structure, including
areas with exposed corrosion, and top coated with a proprietary urethane.
Result: Savings of over $8,000 and 4 days time.

case study: MARINE VESSEL
Problem: The 30-year old service vessel’s deck regularly required new plating at
great expense to the owner due to cancerous rust in areas that receive constant
abuse.
DryWired Solution: Rust Protect was sprayed directly onto the heavily rusted
(but cleaned) deck and then top coated with PPG Tide Guard 171. This saved
time and money associated with having to sandblast and re-plate the corroded
deck.

Rust Protect solves the age olD problems caused by spalled rebar
Problem: Spalled rebar creates 2 specific repair
problems
1. Repair cement will not adhere to
rusted rebar, thereby rendering it
structurally useless.
2. Repair cement creates a cold joint
with the old cement that will fail
rapidly.
Solution: Rust Protect solves these issues by
adhering aggresively to both the rusted
rebar and the original cement work. Please
refer to pages 5-9 for pull test data on
both corroded metal and slab concrete.

Rust Protect’s extremely strong adhesion properties have led to unique applications in the fiber Reinforced polymer (FRP) industry.
Problem: Although incredibly strong and functional,
finished FRP solutions are aesthetically
unpleasing. And due to the surface
profile and characteristics of the epoxy
resins used, it is extremely difficult to
cover FRP with a coating that remains
adhered.
Solution: Rust Protect has been proven to adhere
aggressively to finished FRP solutions; and
because of its cementitious nature, Rust
Protect provides a cement-like surface that
(a) can be painted over directly and (b)
creates and ideal substrate for troweling
cement.

Iso 12944 Paints & Varnishes - Corrosion Protection Of Steel Structures By Protective Paint Systems: Part 2
For this test, a substrate coated with DryWired Rust Protect is scribed, exposing a 120cm x 90cm section of the bare underlying substrate. The substrate with a section exposed is then placed in a chamber where it is sprayed with a salt solution for 240 hours. It is then exposed to a salt fog chamber for 480 hours. The rating the coating is given is determined by rust mitigation from the exposed area to the coated area. DryWired Rust Protect received a “C3-Medium” rating, meaning this coating is in compliance with ISO Standard 12944 Paints & Varnishes - Corrosion Protection of Steel Structures by protective paint systems for the listed exterior and interior application areas for ratings of C3, C2, and C1.
