Praxishandbuch Korrosionsschutz: Vorsorgen - Behandeln - Konservieren

It is a constant topic for all classic and vintage car owners: rust! The appropriate strategies for keeping the "brown plague" away from the beloved metal for as long as possible are discussed no less eagerly. But which method is the most suitable? Preservative wax, oils or perhaps grease?

The specialists at Oldtimer Markt investigated this question in a complex five-year long-term test. It is well known that the decision to use cavity protection is a bond for life: once it's in, you can never get it out again! After all, it's about preserving hundreds of hours of restoration or an untampered original condition for as long as possible.
It's about emotions and value retention and the good feeling of having really done everything in the fight against rust.

Other topics in this title of the "Oldtimer Markt Praxishandbuch" series cover interesting aspects of the corrosion problem, such as the processing technology of cavity protection, powder coating and blasting techniques. In addition, well-known restorers from the scene allow a look over their shoulders and are happy to share their secrets.
