Rust Inhibitor 1205 will passivate steel surfaces due to the presence of selected oxidizing ions and
inhibitors. Parts dipped in Rust Inhibitor 1205 will, after drying, be protected or inhibited against
corrosion. A few examples where such a dip is required is in the final rinse after plating, cleaning,
pickling, phosphating, black oxidizing, tumbling, vapor blasting, wet grinding, heat treating or general
machine shop use between operations.
