STA-BIL Rust Stopper – 12oz

Bare metal can start rusting within weeks of exposure. STA-BIL Rust Stopper leaves a long-lasting, water-resistant film on metal surfaces that keeps rust and corrosion from forming, and it stops rust that’s already started.

Think about the metal on and around a bike that sits all winter: brackets, bolts, a trailer, the hitch, the tie-down points, tools in the garage. Spray them before storage and they come out the way they went in.

• Protects interior and exterior metal surfaces.
• Water resistant, so rain and splash don’t wash it off and leave streaky, uneven corrosion.
• Lubricates and penetrates to stop squeaks and sticking at joints and pivot points.
• Made in the USA. 12 oz aerosol.

How to apply: shake well. Hold it two to three inches from the surface and sweep back and forth for an even coat.

Know what you’re spraying. The film is meant to stay. Getting it off takes a 1,000 to 3,000 psi cold-water pressure wash, a warm-water detergent wash or a commercial biodegradable cleaner. So keep it off brake discs, tires, the seat and anything you don’t want coated.

A stored bike rusts less when it’s dry to begin with. See our guide to outdoor motorcycle storage without a garage.
