Monsoon has begun and its time for the machines and metals to go into hibernation. With a disaster called 'rust' pouring all over with every drop of rain, it had become increasingly important to protect the metal parts and fittings of the household, not to forget our vehicles. If not completely, the problem of rust can be arrested to an extend keeping a few things in mind.

The process of rusting is actually called oxidation, and results from long term exposure of certain metals to oxygen, with water acting as a catalyst. Though exposed metal on your vehicle is seemingly solid, it actually contains small cracks and blemishes which can be penetrated by water molecules. The hydrogen molecules of the water can react with the metal to produce acids, which in turn expose more metal and influence further corrosion. This is the reason that a small amount of rust seemingly affects a perpetual cycle of spreading to a larger area and diminishing the attractiveness and quality of a vehicle immensely.

The ideal rust solution is preventative; it is much easier to take precautionary measures against rust than to combat it once it has formed. Small areas of rust can eventually become extensive damage if measures are not taken to prevent its progression. Washing and waxing your vehicle regularly can significantly reduce the likelihood of the vehicle developing rust. A small investment in a touch up paint kit can mean the difference between keeping your vehicle in excellent condition and watching helplessly as it becomes overcome with rust.

A simple precaution you can take is periodically inspecting the painted surface of your vehicle for any scratches, dings or otherwise exposed metal, and taking action to prevent the formation of rust immediately. Covering exposed areas with touch up paint followed by a clear coat may be all you have to do to keep rust from forming. Touch up paint is available for essentially every vehicle on the road. If you encounter the need to order touch up paint to match your vehicle and there is a delay, you may use clear nail polish to cover and protect the exposed area in the meantime.

For your plumbing and household fixtures and garden tools you can use a bit of mineral oil wiped on the rust patch, followed by a light scrubbing with steel wool, will do the trick. Brush from the center to the tip, away from any sharpened edges and away from your body. The tannic acid in the tea will often act to remove or at least coat rusted areas, but more gently than the stronger chemicals. With a few precautions and some care, you are all set to combat the monsoon this season.
