Rust Preventative 208 is a completely synthetic, water soluble, biodegradable, multipurpose fluid with good short-term rust protection. It is designed primarily as a rust protective agent, but is also a good cleaner for lightly soiled parts. It is formulated for brush, spray, or dip applications and is designed to prevent buildup of residues that normally interfere with system operations. Its water-based system is a safe and economical solution to the occupational and environmental problems posed by some solvent based rust preventatives.

This product finds many uses where the combination of a cleaner – rust protective agent for parts and equipment is required. It is hard water stable and works well at high dilution rates with water. It is commonly used to remove machining oils and residues from freshly machined parts and/or equipment. Its low foam and very low residue formulation also allows its use for protecting circulating systems that can be run tested and drained without further cleanout. Its transparency and thin film make it ideal for short-term protection of parts in process or between machining and assembly steps.
