This highly effective, solvent-based anti-rust product is specially formulated to provide exceptional protection in hidden cavities, seams and joints, where the risk of corrosion is highest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does it work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA professional-grade anti-corrosion product based on a unique formula of waxes, sulphonates and special oils. Unlike standard solutions, this product forms a durable, greasy and highly moisture-repellent layer after application. Its low viscosity ensures deep penetration, allowing it to effectively reach seams, joints and metal folds. The liquid penetrates deep into even microscopic cracks and hard-to-reach cavities in the car frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce dry, the product remains flexible and forms a brown, moisture-repellent wax film that does not crack even under sharp temperature fluctuations. This makes it an ideal choice for Latvia’s changeable weather, where salt and moisture are a constant threat to metal surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe product has been evaluated in comparative tests and approved for use on most car makes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey technical advantages\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen carrying out anti-corrosion treatment, it is important to use materials that not only coat the surface but also provide long-term protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDeep penetration: Thanks to its high penetrating ability, the product effectively reaches seams, gaps and structural joints.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEffective corrosion protection: Excellent adhesion to metal surfaces, preventing air and moisture from reaching them.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEnvironmental sustainability: The product complies with the strict SS 18 65 11 standard and contains a significant proportion of renewable raw materials, reducing its environmental impact without compromising performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eVersatility: Can be used both as a standalone cavity protection product and as a primer before applying thicker underbody coatings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eProven compatibility: Mercasol 1 has been tested and approved for use with various corrosion protection systems and is compatible with many car makes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications and compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMercasol 1 is designed to protect hidden structures and joint areas of cars against corrosion, and can also be used as a base coat in a system with Mercasol underbody coatings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInternal cavities: Doors, sills, chassis rails and boot lids, where moisture accumulation promotes rust formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeams and joints: Flanges and structural joints that need protection against the ingress of moisture and salt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a base coat for exposed surfaces: Can be used as a base layer in underbody protection systems in combination with Mercasol 3 or Mercasol 3AL, improving the adhesion of the next layer to the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe product is compatible with most modern automotive corrosion protection systems and has been tested for use on factory coatings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstructions for use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor maximum effectiveness, the anti-rust treatment process must be followed carefully:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSurface preparation: Before treatment, make sure the surface is clean and dry.
