Effective, Economical Protection

Cleaning and sealing steel work In need of re- newed protection is an expensive process i f done by hand. The Dearborn Chemical Company has developed a new, economltal method.

A sprayed on mat ing of N G O X - I D is first made to loosen up the old rust rrcale and k i l l the corrosion by penetrating to the seat of thb pit. During this soaklng and cleanlng process, al l spots where rust slabs or old coating fall off, should be touched up with NO-OX-ID, to prevent further corrosion.

The structure may be completely cared for by thls method, or when all rust is killed, a coating of NO-OX-ID Fil ler Red, Black o r Aluminum, may be applied, and a coat of paint over thls i f delired.

The NO-OX-ID does the work of cleaning and preparing the metal surface, and prevents any fu.rther rust action during the process.
