Process
Rust Check application: two-step coverage
For over 50 years, Rust Check has protected vehicles across Canada using a two-step process. Each step targets specific rust-prone zones so moisture is displaced, corrosion is interrupted, and exposed metal stays protected through harsh Canadian winters.

Drill vs no-drill rust proofing
You can choose how Rust Check is applied. Drill gives maximum cavity access using reusable plugs. No-drill uses factory access points only and takes longer with the same professional care. Both options provide excellent rust protection.
Products and visual proof
Rust Check Original Rust Inhibitor penetrates seams, welds, and hidden cavities. Coat & Protect (Amber or Black) seals exposed underbody metal, stays flexible, and resists wash-off, cracking, and hardening.
Frequently asked questions
