    Stainless steel rusts. In certain environments, such as in swimming pools or in coastal areas this is a lot harder to prevent. Inoxiclean Restore is your solution.

    In general, rust occurs because oxygen cannot get to the surface of the stainless steel meaning a new chromium layer cannot form. Using Inoxiclean Restore in a regular maintenance program will protect your stainless steel. And extend the lifespan of your stainless steel.

    Flash Rust on Stainless Steel

    Flash rust is the most common type of rust found in a workshop. It occurs when free iron comes into contact with stainless steel. This is due to small steel particles coming into contact with the stainless steel and starting to oxidise.

    Mechanical Rust on Stainless Steel

    Inoxiclean restores stainless steel to its original finish. Prevents corrosion and contamination.

    Mechanical rust is also common within a workshop. Manufacturing stainless steel in ways such as welding, bending and cutting causes the stainless steel to become weaker. These weak points mean the natural passivation of the stainless steel is impeded.

    Chemical Rust on Stainless Steel

    Stainless steel in coastal areas, as touched upon earlier is suspectible to rusting and contamination damage. Sea water contains salt and causes localised damage and pitting on stainless steel such as on boat hand rails or coastal street furniture.

    Commonly seen on forecourt and car park bollards exhaust fumes are very aggressive. This build up of pollutants will cause rapid rusting if not treated regularly.

    How Does Restore Work?

    Inoxiclean Restore offers a simple three step process to remove rust and contamination.

    1. Begin by applying the Inoxiclean Restore to your workpiece, ensuring that all the contamination is covered and leave for a few minutes

    3. Finally, use a clean, microfibre cloth to wipe away the Inoxiclean Restore and the orignal finish to your stainless steel will be renewed
