Rustguard Aqua is ideal for medium-term stockholding of bright steel, interim protection of components awaiting machining or assembly and general rust prevention in machine shops and tool rooms.
Pennine Rustguard Aqua is a solvent-free, water-dilutable rust preventative designed to deliver reliable medium-term corrosion protection without the hazards associated with solvent-based products.
Supplied as a concentrate and diluted with water before use, it provides an economical, easy-to-apply protective film that dries to leave bright steel protected during storage, handling, or interim manufacturing stages.
With a high flash point and low odour, Rustguard Aqua creates a safer, more pleasant working environment while maintaining effective rust prevention across machine shops, tool rooms and manufacturing facilities.
Improves operator safety, reduces fire risk & creates a more pleasant working environment compared to solvent-based alternatives
Dilution rates from 5–30% allow protection levels to be tailored to the application, improving cost efficiency & flexibility
Ideal for stockholding, interim protection between machining operations, or general workshop use
Best applied by immersion but also suitable for brush or spray application & easily removed using standard industrial degreasing methods
Suitable for environments where solvent-based products are restricted for health & safety reasons

Rustguard Aqua is ideal for medium-term stockholding of bright steel, interim protection of components awaiting machining or assembly and general rust prevention in machine shops and tool rooms.
The product should be diluted with water at concentrations between 5% and 30%, depending on the level of protection required. Immersion is recommended, but brushing or spraying is also suitable. After application, the water must be allowed to fully dry for maximum protection.
No. Rustguard Aqua is not recommended for applications exposed to the elements, as prolonged moisture exposure may cause re-emulsification of the protective coating.
