What is the difference between water-soaked rust and normal rust on a car?
1 Answers
Here are the differences between water-soaked rust and normal rust on a car: 1. Check the chassis and the area above the engine oil pan for signs of water-soaked rust: Normal rust on the chassis and engine is completely different from water-soaked rust. If it's normal aging rust, the rusted surface will appear dull and covered with accumulated dust from years of use. In contrast, water-soaked rust shows a light yellow pattern on the rusted paint, which clearly indicates fresh metal watermarks. 2. Seats: The mounting brackets of seats in a water-damaged car will show rust. Under normal circumstances, seats generally do not rust. 3. Cigarette lighter: A water-damaged car may have sediment and rust in the cigarette lighter, whereas a normally rusted car will not.
