cover in oil, paint, grease or plastic. or galvanise it
Paint cans vary quite considerably in size. They come is sizes of 250 ml, 500 ml, 1 litre, 2.5 litres, 5 litres and larger.
To prevent it from rusting.
Keeping an outdoor table dry and covered from the elements will help keep it from rusting. Paste wax, greasing, and rust-proof paint are other ways to keep them from rusting if you're unable to keep them out of the rain.
oxygen in the air and water react with the metal of the car to form rust.. the wax forms a waterproof layer which makes it harder for substances to reach the metal.. therefore leaving it unreacted :)
Paint or enamel can protect iron from rusting.
You need to apply 50 tons of paint every 7 years to avoid it from rusting and breaking
Paint can protect iron from rusting, especially if it is the right kind of paint - you would not want to use a water based acrylic paint, since the water in the paint would promote rusting, rather than preventing it.
They put 50-60 tonnes of paint on it every seven years to protect it from rust
It takes 50 tons of paint to paint the Eiffel tower
car will only rust id moisture can get thru the paint. other than that, leave it in the garage
Paint protects the metal from exposure to oxygen .
I'll give a non chemist answer but a wise answer... logically, you are covering it with a mixture (correct this If Im wrong), preventing it to have contact with the oxygen in the atmosphere. Therefore preventing the iron to oxidize :)
Paint it
for every 7 years, the eiffel tower needed 50 TONS of paint!!!
Rusting is caused due to exposture of iron to moisture. When iron articles are painted, it is not exposed to the atomospheric moisture. This is how paint stops rusting
