At Corroseal®, we’ve dedicated ourselves to a singular mission: providing the most effective, environmentally responsible solutions for rust conversion and metal preservation. As pioneers in water-based rust treatment technology, our journey began with a simple but powerful idea – to transform the way professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike tackle one of metal’s most persistent enemies.
Our Story: Innovation Born from Necessity
Founded in 1988, Corroseal® emerged from the recognition that traditional rust removal methods were often labor-intensive, environmentally harmful, and ultimately temporary. Our founders, a team of industrial chemists and metal preservation specialists, set out to develop something revolutionary: a product that wouldn’t just remove rust, but actually convert it into a stable, paintable surface in one simple step.
After years of research and development, we introduced our flagship product – Corroseal® Water-Based Rust Converter – to a market that quickly recognized its value. What began as a specialized solution for maritime applications soon expanded across industries, from automotive restoration to infrastructure maintenance, home improvement to heavy equipment preservation.
The Corroseal® Difference
What sets Corroseal® apart in the crowded field of rust treatments is our unique water-based formula that works through a chemical conversion process rather than simple rust removal. When applied to rusted metal, our converter actively transforms iron oxide (rust) into a stable, inert compound that creates a protective barrier against further corrosion.
This revolutionary approach offers several key advantages:
- One-step application that both converts rust and primes the surface
- Water-based, environmentally responsible formula with minimal VOCs
- No need for extensive surface preparation or sandblasting
- Long-lasting protection that prevents rust from returning
- Compatible with most top-coat paints and finishes
Our commitment to quality means that every bottle of Corroseal® is manufactured to exacting standards in our U.S. facilities, ensuring consistency and reliability with every application.
Our Product Philosophy
At Corroseal®, we believe that effective rust treatment shouldn’t require hazardous chemicals or specialized equipment. Our product development philosophy centers on three core principles:
- Effectiveness: Our products must deliver superior rust conversion with minimal effort
- Accessibility: Our solutions should be usable by professionals and homeowners alike
- Responsibility: Our formulations must minimize environmental impact without compromising performance
This philosophy has guided our product lineup beyond our original rust converter to include specialized cleaners, degreasers, and maintenance solutions that complement our core offering.

The Science Behind Corroseal®
The effectiveness of our rust converter isn’t magic – it’s chemistry. Our proprietary formulation works through a carefully balanced reaction that transforms iron oxide into a stable, inert iron phosphate compound. This conversion process has several advantages over traditional rust removal:
- The converted surface becomes an integral part of the metal substrate
- The phosphate layer provides a superior foundation for paint adhesion
- The treatment penetrates deeply into the rust, addressing issues below the surface
- The water-based carrier enables safer handling and application
Our research and development team continually refines our formulations, incorporating advances in chemical engineering to improve performance while maintaining our commitment to environmental responsibility.
Environmental Commitment
Long before “green” became a marketing buzzword, Corroseal® was committed to developing environmentally responsible solutions. Our water-based formulations minimize the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and eliminate many of the hazardous chemicals found in traditional rust treatments.
This commitment extends throughout our operations:
- Our manufacturing processes are designed to minimize waste and energy consumption
- Our packaging incorporates recycled materials wherever possible
- Our product development prioritizes biodegradable and non-toxic components
- Our facilities comply with and often exceed environmental regulations
We believe that effective rust treatment shouldn’t come at the expense of environmental responsibility, and we continue to pursue innovations that reduce our ecological footprint.
