Why Rust CheckTM is Preferred Over Sealants

  • It penetrates welded seams and crevices and provides excellent protection for these corrosion-prone areas. Sealants are not as effective in protecting these vital areas.
  • It does not require clean metal surfaces for good adhesion and is effective on both used and new vehicles. While Rust Check will not reverse existing corrosion damage, it will drastically reduce its progression.
  • It is a unique electro-chemical compound that contains self-healing properties.
  • It dispels moisture trapped in seams and crevices; sealants trap moisture in these corrosion-prone areas.
  • It is non-drying, unlike sealants; it remains mobile and will never dry, crack, or peel.
  • It lubricates as it protects against corrosion.
  • It does not contain any offensive odors or potentially toxic petroleum solvents, unlike sealants.
  • It will not damage painted surfaces and any over spray can be easily cleaned off.
  • It is completely reapplied each and every year to maintain a high on-going level of protection, unlike sealants which are merely touched-up.
  • It offers annually renewable warranties with unlimited mileage and transferable ownership for new and qualified used vehicles.
  • It has been proven to work – since 1973!
  • With proper annual application, it provides a lifetime guarantee against rust, no matter the miles or the owner!

    Definitely recommend to everyone! I am an independent contractor and my car was in desperate need of a lower ball joint and control arm. I called on a Monday and they set my appointment up for 2 days away! They communicated well with me … More and understand my needs! Thank you Rudy's for taking care of my car! You've earned a lifelong client with me and I recommend everyone to this business as they are also very affordable!

    I got my Rust Check refreshed, after 1 year. The rust proofing, though it's initially kind of fragrant, is very thorough. I feel confident driving through Syracuse winters since purchasing this product. I appreciate Rudy Schmidt, and … More their capable technicians, and would recommend them to anyone looking for rust prevention for their vehicle.

    I will continue to go to Rudy Schmid for Rust Check. They are professional, friendly, and efficient. I have been there twice so far and both experiences have been good.

    I have used the Schmid family for 25+ years. I would call Dianne and P.J. "business friends". Weather in the frame shop, body shop, or rust prevention, they have always been stellar in their trade. They are professional, courteous, … More attentive, and responsive,... which most shops struggle with today.
    I highly recommend anyone to call the Schmid family for any type of autobody, frame, and general maintenance/service. If it's something not in their expertise they will direct you to someone who is. You are in good hands when "Schmid happens."
