Frequently Asked Questions
• What exactly is Cortec VpCI-819 Wax Rinse, and how does it protect surfaces?
Cortec VpCI-819 Wax Rinse is a revolutionary product that shines, seals, and protects metal surfaces using advanced vapor corrosion inhibitors (VpCI®). It works by forming a protective layer that actively safeguards against the damaging effects of corrosion, essentially creating a lasting shield on your treated surfaces.
• How does the VpCI® technology in this product actually work to prevent rust?
The VpCI® technology in Cortec VpCI-819 operates by releasing a protective vapor into the enclosed environment, or onto the surface when sprayed.
