does this stuff actually inhibit rust formation or just seal it in?

supposed to inhibit as well , bloody horrible stuff though

you put the can in hot water and it goes fluid , then you pump it in and as it goes like swarfega , supposed to chase away water and inhibit rust.

I had it drip back out in 2 locations untill it went off , both factory seams , just goes to show where water can get in.

Waxoyl is a rust-preventative fluid. It is used to prolong the life of car chassis and bodywork, by excluding water and air from bare metal and by slowing the progress of existing rust using rust inhibitors. The fluid is a suspension of waxy particles in white spirit, which evaporates after application.
