Does saltwater make metal rust faster than unsalted water?

Salt water does make nails rust faster than non-salted water, because when salt is added to water, it will rust the top layer of the nail, and then make the nail basically shed its top layer. Then the salt will rust that layer, and this process continues until the whole nail is rusted. Normal water can only really rust the top layer, and can't get to the rest of the nail.

How many layers to a toenail?

A toenail typically consists of several layers, primarily made up of keratin, which is a tough protein. The main layers include the nail plate (the visible part), the nail bed beneath it, and the matrix at the base where new nail growth occurs. The nail plate itself can be considered to have three distinct layers: the dorsal (top) layer, the intermediate layer, and the ventral (bottom) layer.
