Permanent rustproofing

Forget about rust for 10 years.

Our permanent rustproofing treatment protects your vehicle where it counts: chassis, doors, panels, seals. Resistant, durable and guaranteed.

Peace of mind, once and for all.

Penetr-Oil® annual rustproofing treatment

A layer of protection. Every year.

Penetr-Oil® penetrates deep to repel rust, even in the most inaccessible areas. Clean, effective, damage-free.

Flexible, reliable, renewable.

Why protect your vehicle against rust?

Rust is one of your vehicle’s biggest enemies. It creeps in unnoticed, weakens structures and eventually causes costly repairs. Whether your car is new or older, protecting it against corrosion means extending its life and preserving its value.

But not all treatments are created equal. At Alex Pneu et Mécanique, we offer two effective and complementary solutions, tailored to your vehicle, your usage and your budget:

  • The permanent rustproofing treatment: a complete and long-lasting paraffin-based application that forms a protective barrier on critical areas of the chassis, panels and welds. It protects against water, salt and mud – with a 10-year guarantee.
  • Penetr-Oil® annual treatment: a clean, non-dripping product that penetrates joints, cavities and hard-to-reach areas. It locks in moisture and slows the progress of rust all year round.

At Alex Pneu et Mécanique, you benefit from the expertise of Ziebart®, world leader in rust protection for over 60 years. Our trained team applies each treatment with precision and transparency. Preserve your vehicle’s performance and appearance!

Frequently asked questions about rustproofing treatments

What's the difference between permanent and annual rustproofing?

Permanent rustproofing is applied once and offers long-lasting protection, with a transferable 10-year warranty. Penetr-Oil® annual treatment, on the other hand, must be renewed every year and penetrates deep into joints and cavities to stop or slow down existing rust.

My car is new, do I really need a rustproofing treatment?

Yes. Even new vehicles are exposed to moisture, salt and mud from their very first season. A good rustproofing treatment prevents rust from forming in the first place, and extends the vehicle’s life.

Does permanent treatment damage my vehicle's components?

No. The products used do not harm rubber, plastic or electrical components. They are designed to be safe and long-lasting.

Should I prepare my vehicle before a rustproofing treatment?

Underbody cleaning is recommended, especially in winter. But don’t worry: our team will take care of everything that’s needed for optimal application.

Does Penetr-Oil® anti-rust drip or stain my driveway?

No. Unlike some products, Penetr-Oil® is clean, won’t run, and won’t damage surfaces. It’s also more environmentally friendly

Is permanent treatment enough for the life of the vehicle?

It offers excellent long-term protection. However, regular checks are recommended to ensure that everything remains in good condition. In some cases, an annual top-up treatment can reinforce protection
