It rusts because of the oxygen present in atmosphere. Rust is iron oxide - where the iron in the steel has combined with oxygen.
Preventing oxygen reaching the metal is the primary way to avoid rust, and this is done primarily with paints and other coatings.
Any part made entirely or mostly from steel or iron can rust.
Rusting is prevented by stopping oxygen access to the metal, most commonly by applying paint. Any place the paint is penetrated by oxygen will generally start to rust.
Rust spots are often started where the paint is damaged, such as by a stone chip. Untreated components will naturally rust first.
Because they are often at a high temperature :)
Because the exhaust is exposed to all elements of the weather and then therefore the exhaust would slowly wear away and rust.
Metal rusts due to oxidisation which is aided by water or H2O, especially when that water sits on bare metal for long periods of time.
cars rust faster in warm wet times. it is the moisture & road salt that causes the corrosion.
Car exhausts have a lot of water in them from the hot engine gases hitting the cold exhaust piping. The combination of heat and water speeds up the rusting process.
Yes, it is possible for an iron alloy pipe.
car radiators used to be made of copper, copper doesnt rust. most radiators are now made from aluminum.aluminum also does no rust
Its fine
coca cola. for real do it
because salt can rust your car and eat away at the metal
Its cheap, its light, and it doesn't rust.
You must cut out all rust, because rust does not stop it continues to grow, please do not just cover it up because it will come back again. The questioner is asking: How do you refurbish a well used car? and telling you that the car has rust all over. It would seem that the first thing to do is replace the parts that are rusty.
They may become unsafe to drive due to rust weakening parts of the car.
Yes, the internal parts of the pump can rust, and effect water circulation.
To answer this question precisely would necessitate me knowing what you mean by the word "age". If car A is 10 years old with no rust, but car B is 10 years old with rust, they are both 10 years old. The age of both cars is 10 years. Only time itself causes age. However, if you ask the question "Can rust cause my car to become no longer useful?" The answer to this is - yes. Rust eats away critical parts of the car so that it is no longer safe to use.
Car magnets doesn't cause rust.
Aluminium weighs less and it doesn't rust. It's about as hard as iron, too.
Yes it will. Always. Your regular spray paint that you'll see in hardware or shopping centers will NOT work on vehicles to prevent Rust though! It can sometimes increase your rust problem. Visit your local car parts store for a wide selection of proper paints.
Steam does speed up the rust of shower parts. Water on metal can speed up rusting of metal parts.

Rust is formed fro Fe2O3.nH2O and Fe(OH)3.
I know that if the metal on a car is exposed to oxygen for a long period of time it starts to rust.... but oxygen isn't a pollutent.

rust can dissolve the metal on ur car then ur car can fall apart and it will wreck your paint
