Hi guys. Question about rust prevention for the brains trust, or metal workers. Is there any new miracle product I can apply to push bikes, wheelbarrows etc that can prevent rust without giving it a sticky coat. I've tried fish oil, inox, wd40 etc. Been told penetrol which I haven't tried yet. I like the idea of just spraying something on, but was told it can do more harm than good, and should just polish. Any Oceanside residents have any tips. Cheers

Zinc galvanized pressure pack you can buy this in a spray pack and then paint colour over the top of it. uses a wire brush back the affected part or spray on the bit that you really wanna protect i don't know about the bike that i spray my wheelbarrows in other things are outside with it
we paint absolutely everything we could use in steel with it over here on the beach
if it is a really rusty first use a well priced rust converter would you can buy this turns rust black and stops the process and treat with zinc galvanize
P enetrene its best for loosening rusted components

Penetrol rust treatment. Dries hard unlike fish oil. Can also paint over Penetrol or even add it to your paint.

Boeshield T-9? is the go and you can get it at some bike shops. Not cheap but it not only protects from rust but also lubricants. I use this on my ebikes as I use cr mo frames and through all the rain and muck it does a great job. Good for the chain as well.
