How does coating with oil grease and tar prevent rusting?
i believe that grease prevents rust better than paint because paint can chip and peel grease repels water and other liquid substances thus allowing it to stick to a solid such as iron and by this happening it deprives the oxygen molecules from reaching the iron and by doing so no chemical reaction is formed causing rust. Hope this has helped.
