No more Rusty Rotors - Hyde's Serum Rustopper

Product Showcase: Hyde's Serum Rustopper - Anti Rust solution for your wheel and braking systems.



How many times have you wondered....how can I stop rust on my brake rotors when I wash or detail my car. Its ugly and messy. We get this question quite often.

I'm happy to announce that we have found a great solution to prevent this from happening during your car wash.

No more having to go back and wipe down your inner wheels after all that hard work.

This is currently is the best solution that we know of to prevent rust from happening to the rotors during your washing and detailing. This is not a permanent solution, the rotors will rust after you drive in the rain or they get wet.

STOP the RUST from ruining your wash and details.



Manufacturer Description:


Rustopper effortlessly prevents rust from forming on your brake rotors after cleaning wheels and braking systems.

Product features:
- Rustopper was designed to prevent “rust dust” – the initial brake dust on clean wheels that occurs after washing.
- Rustopper’s Acid-free, pH-neutral formula will not attack wheel coatings, lug nuts or braking systems.
- Rustopper is safe on all types of steel and alloy wheels (including chrome and polished wheels), anodized finishes and single stage paints.

Directions for Use:

1. After cleaning wheel and braking system, rinse thoroughly with water and let excess water drip for several seconds.

2. From a close distance, apply liberally to brake rotor surface, spraying in a sweeping motion around the rotor face at least two times.

3. The liquid may fizz as it reacts with the iron rotor. Finally, wipe any excess liquid inside wheel.

Precautions:

Protect against frost or freezing. Do not apply in direct sunlight or to hot wheels.

POSSIBLE EYE AND SKIN IRRITANT. Contains Sodium Nitrite. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Use in well ventilated areas. In case of eye contact rinse immediately and thoroughly with water. Harmful by inhalation and if swallowed. Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause irritation of eyes and skin. In case of skin contact, wash with soap and water. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

A quick drive around the block will do the same thing - cheaper, chemical free and more fun. Dries the wheels, tires, brakes and other components as well without a lot of wiping.

Sodium Nitrite is a corrosion inhibitor so there may be some hidden advantages to the product but it's use is usually in a closed system like a cooling system. It's also used to cure meats, whatever that has to do with your rotors.

"Do not apply in direct sunlight or to hot wheels."

They just lost half their customers right there. Probably more than half as hot wheels have always been more popular than Matchbox...

Agreed, also its semi permanent, so a bit hard to trust.

I have never had a car, bicycle or motorcycle with disc brakes develop rust. Ever.

I'll pass on putting anything on my brake rotors, vegan or not, thanks.

Actually know Ryan (the creator of the serum) well and he was very excited to finally release his serum - I've seen it used and the effects are amazing - no more rusty rotors!
