How long does it protect: Will last a long time on unused tools, otherwise it should be re-applied after use of a tool.Necessary cookies are absolutely essential for the website to function properly. Pros: Easy and quick to apply, fairly inexpensive, easy to spray into the inside of sockets, coat large areas of tools at once, etc.Ĭons: Messy even with a little coating on, has to be reapplied on used tools, wax based needs to be removed with a solvent if desired.Ĭost: Around $8-$10 available at Sears or bicycle shops You can also 'dunk' the tool in a gallon bucket. Basically the same concept, spray the tool and allow to dry. Doing some research, it looks like it is also of similar design, as it consists of an aerosol based wax substance as well. Many people have mentioned ' Fluid Film'. Boeshield is essentially a spray on wax that coats when allowed to try, creates an effective barrier. It easily coats a large section of tools quickly, and is easy to spray into the socket to cover the inside as well.

The thing I like about it is you can spray it on as an aerosol, it's fairly inexpensive, and the can lasts quite a while. My personal choice here is Boeshield T9, developed by the Boeing Company to protect aircraft parts. The idea here is to prevent moisture and air from contacting the tool. Pros: No mess on tools, EPA friendly, non-toxic, no hassle, just use your tools and put them back in, protects all sides of your sockets including inside as well as electronic components as the vapor swirls all around inside your box, also protects the interior portion of the tool box from rust.Ĭons: Can become expensive over time (approx cost of $5-$10 per year, can add up), have to cut to shape,Ĭost: $10-$30 + shipping for a typical tool boxĬoat the tools with a rust inhibitor, of which there are many, from scientific to completely simple. I have used their 'block' product in a shotgun case now for several years, with great results, even the exposed steel is completely clean with no rust, and I've read others experience rust in just a few weeks or months even coating with Remoil. The next option, is to cover the tools with a coating of (something) to prevent air and moisture contact.ġ) Use a product from Zerust, a drawer liner would be optimal, that emits ICTs which is basically a vapor that attaches to metal.

The most expensive would be storing them in a some sort of vacuum sealed container, obviously that is out.

To stop it, you would either need to prevent one or both of those things from contacting your tools. So here is what I've found either thru personal experience or research online:įirst, rust happens because metal is exposed to air and moisture for a prolonged period of time. I have done a lot of research on rust prevention lately, as I've just recently bought a lot of tools and being a home user don't use them that often.
