Contrary to common airport "hangar talk" of years past
some of which held with the thought that high airframe times wear-out aircraft,
a quick reality check with anyone who runs a maintenance facility or GA salvage
operation nowadays will confirm it will be airframe corrosion that will
eventually relegate your favorite Mooney, Bonanza, or Piper to the boneyard...

The
CorrosionX
formula
is one of the most effective compounds ever known to stop/prevent corrosion especially when fogged internally via a
professional fog/spray rig. It has become the industry standard preventative
compound widely used by the
military and is FAA/Mil Spec approved. It is a technologically advanced
multi-functional product that is an exceptional lubricant for rod ends (such as
found in Mooneys), hinges, locks, and closure mechanisms and is an unexcelled penetrant for breaking loose rusted/corroded components (exhaust studs,
inspection plate screws, etc.).
Does
it work?
In a word, Absolutely. User reports and
lab tests from Aviation Consumer Magazine, Major GA airframe manufacturers, USAF, the Navy, as
well as the U.S. Army verify
this product is one of (if not THE) most effective anti-corrosion
products available
for
both ferrous (steel/iron) and non-ferrous metals such as aluminum and magnesium. For
example, at Ft. Drum, NY indicate Mil Spec approved CorrosionX as reportedly saved $4 million in refurbishment costs* for
aircraft treated with CorrosionX and later deployed to
Somalia. Similar findings were reported for helicopters used in Haiti and
for helicopters used around off-shore oil platforms.
It is not to be confused with hardware story variety products like WD-40 (or
similar) as when tested by independent labs, objective results
clearly show there is absolutely no
comparison whatsoever as while they consist of 70%+ solvents (solvents being
cheaper than active additives), CorrosionX's additive
package consists of 11 unique compounds especially formulated to interfere with
any existing process and stop all future corrosive cells from forming. Ask
any shop or long-term private user, especially those who deal with corrosion
every day like amphibious, coastal, or marine operators as they all have come to
agree, CorrosionX works!
Airframe Corrosion: Your Plane's True Grim Reaper
The
overriding problem with much of the GA fleet is simply age and exposure to
natural
elements; not flying time. Aluminum airframes are subject to corrosive
"cells" which tend to turn aluminum back to its natural element; bauxite salts
if left un-treated. For example, when being flown at higher (read: cooler or
cold) altitudes airframes get "cold
soaked". When aircraft descend, their cooler (if
not
sub-freezing cold) airframes generate moisture or condensation internally as
they pass through warmer more humid air below. Often pilots aren't aware
of this
phenomena and this moisture forms with contaminants and plain dirt trapped
internally to help start
corrosive "cells". Without some form
of preventative measures to disrupt this electrical process, over time corrosion
can and does form. Thus it is a known fact that while insidious, corrosion is
actually your aircraft's main killer-not flying times.
Airframe
Corrosion Is Now Controllable If Not Preventable
If properly
maintained, most airframes seem never to actually "wear out" per
se. For the most part and in the
"real world" airframe corrosion is
the true grim reaper of most every aluminum aircraft. While this
technology is relatively new, still the same it has proven to not only work, but
work exceedingly if not magically for what it was designed to do-disrupt if not
prevent the corrosive process. You only need to test it yourself like we
did spraying sea water on steel wool pads some of which were soaked in all the
popular engine oils and others in CorrosionX to see the dramatic difference!
The CorrosionX treated pads kept rust at bay for weeks-if not over a month while
the engine oil soaked pads showed signs of rust right away even the first day or
two!
Given the fact the
FAA has made statements of the typical GA aircraft having a useful life of some
43 years, it simply stands to reason that sooner or later airframe corrosion will play a
major role in deteriorating these airframes unless corrosion is aggressively
kept in check with regular preventative fogging with products such as CorrosionX.
Don't believe it, visit a GA boneyard and poke around.

professionals who know...
