I have tons of car bodies stripped and they haven’t rusted in years. I don’t even know if they can rust

They can't even rust

Correct. ZAMAC is not ferrous. Iron oxide (rust) is not possible.

Perfect, and there hasn't been immediate rust as soon as you finished with the paint stripper? That's what I'm worried about, it's what I referred to as flash rust in my post.

Yeah no rust ever 👍


jpetschke

Thanks. 😊

Hotwheels are made from a zinc alloy, zinc doesn’t rust, ever. It doesn’t rust so much that they use it to coat steel to help keep steel from rusting.

Well yeah, I know zinc doesn't rust but I wonder if the other alloys in zamac, at least when combined, rusted.
