Castrol Rustilo DW 180 HF (previously called SafeCoat™ DW 18 VC) is a high quality corrosion preventive with dewatering properties, specifically formulated based on a low volatile solvent in order to comply with the today’s VOClegislation. The solvent, after evaporation, leaves a thin oily to greasy protective film. Rustilo DW 180 HF rapidly removes water from components subsequent to electroplating processes, after machining using soluble cutting fluids, or parts that have been washed or mass vibratory finished. The thin residual film provides effective short to medium term protection against corrosion during intermediate storage or transportation of parts and components. Although Rustilo DW 180 HF can be applied by brushing or spraying, its dewatering action is most effective if the articles to be protected can be immersed in a dip tank.
