I spotted a really interesting product while searching for replacement glass-- ECS Automotive http://www.ecsautomotive.com/index.php had a product named RPM.  Has anyone used it, and what is your experience?

I LOVE the stuff!  Put it on my bare metal parts [like 1" front stabilizer brackets] and NO rust! I have heard that it {RPM} is also praised on other sites.

With the RPM product it's definitely a more labor intensive process (pre heating each part prior to brushing on RPM) versus Beoshield or Sharkhide. They all do a great job, irrespective of price.

I used the ECS product.  You can use a quality heat gun to warm them up. It doesn't require regular reapplication. The heat process wicks the moisture from the iron. Boeshield is okay, but leaves a waxy residue that picks up dust and requires reapplications on a regular basis.
He also makes a firearm product that is fantastic. It also resist fingerprints.

I use a product called Gibbs, u can also use it on parts that are to be painted. Works very well.

Anyone use any of these on chrome?

For instance, wondering how that Boeshield Rust Free rust and stain remover would work on chrome rims.

Saw something called "Evapo-Rust" on a show about SEMA.

The Boeshield rust free product is phosphoric acid - would not advise using on chrome.

Guys have been using this product for maybe 10 years or more. More of a rust bath. Soak for 24 hours removes all rust, leaves nice fresh surface but doesn't really leave a long lasting rust protection. Sill not touch paint or paint marks so helps there also.

Its been a little expensive for some and there has been a number of knock-offs made by other companies in recent years


I did use it on one application where I hooked up a pump and rand a flush over a section of the unibody to flush out a seam and sheet metal panel overlap. Did the job it appears - 10 years later

^^^ Thanks Jeff, I haven't checked on the price.

Evapo-Rust manufacturer claims it does not hurt chrome.

Was thinking of trying it on some rare Rader wheels that I have. Aluminum centers with chrome hoops.

Some spots of rust on the hoops. Perhaps could then go over it with some "Quick-Glo", which is a cleaner, polisher and waxer to help prevent the rust from coming back.

The Best deal I have found on Evapo-Rust is in the 5 gallon pail from Harbor Freight.
