The metal can be painted with a protective layer or electroplated. Galvanization involving the use of a sacrificial and more reactive metal can also be applied, e.g. coating iron with zinc. Zinc by itself does not rust, and even if the zinc layer is scratched such that iron is exposed, iron will not rust as it is sacrificially protected by the zinc against corrosion.

What will happen to a metal if it is attack by corrosion?
Eating away and eventual destruction of metals and alloys by chemical attack. The rusting of ordinary iron and steel is the most common form of corrosion. Rusting takes place in moist air, when the iron combines with oxygen and water to form a brown-orange deposit of rust (hydrated iron oxide). The rate of corrosion is increased where the atmosphere is polluted with sulphur dioxide. Salty road and air conditions accelerate the rusting of car bodies.
