For the full review, click here: bit.ly/rustproofers.
BikeSocial's seven month test of motorcycle corrosion protectants, pitting the leading products against each other in a controlled salt-spray analysis. Muc-Off has asked us to point out that: "Muc-Off Motorcycle Protectant is not intended as a stand-alone dedicated corrosion protectant, it is formulated to protect your motorcycle by dispersing any remaining moisture after a thorough clean and removal of other corrosive substrates, the product therefore is not designed for the type of use seen in this test which intends to replicate a motorcycle being ridden through winter. A Muc-Off product far better suited to this application is our Corrosion Defence treatment, which will be launching in August 2018.
"Ultimately no protectant will ever be a replacement for the appropriate level of care and it is only this combined with the correct products that will help you enjoy your motorcycle all year round."
Products on test:
ACF-50
XCP Rust Blocker
Scottoiler FS-365
S-Doc100 Corrosion protectant
TechCote ACS TC200
WD-40
GT85
Muc-Off Motorcycle Protectant
Motorex MotoPrep

Tried them all, ACF50 for me applied with a compressor, buy it in bottles too as a little goes a long way. The cans can be used but leave them in a bucket of warm water for 20 minutes before using...

Excellent test. Of all the non-laboratory tests on KZfaq, this is the most comprehensive motorcycle rust product test, and closest to the scientific method that I have seen! Good use of control, reducing artefacts. I do not think blinding the test would make a difference, so excellent test! I continue to use ACF50, but I will give XCP a try should I come across it in the future.

This extremely thorough and comprehensive test was very useful in choosing a rust protection product. In addition to testing for rust protection it was useful to know that certain products are safe on electrics, wiring and rubber O Rings etc. Will be looking forward to more comprehensive product tests in the future. The time taken and attention to detail during the testing period were second to none. Very impressed. Keep up the good work 👏 👍

That was a very comprehensive test and taught us a few things regarding the products, and how we should maintain them after the initial treatment. You need the products to be sticky or they will just get blasted off when you ride through muddy puddles and salty grit. A product that you can clean off very easily will wash off during riding and be no use whatsoever. Just use a bit of elbow grease and your new bike will still look like new again after the winter commute. ACF 50 and FS365 are my favourites, but give a couple of extra coats each time you wash off the mud and salt.

Thanks for this! An old mechanic friend of ours did a test like this in the ‘70’s, he used muffler clamps hung on a chain link fence…he never touched them, never re-applied… He used WD-40, fresh grease(bearing), regular clean motor oil, drain oil from an oil change, and one or two other products I don’t remember anymore…anyways, the winner? Used drain oil by a long shot… His theory was the acids and other compounds in it helped it penetrate the metal better…I’ve used this on many things since, and it really seems to work!(mower decks, and suspension components come to mind)… Maybe include this if you do this again? Best of all, it’s free!☺️

Top effort! Thank you! To me fs365 is totally pointless as no one has the time to spray their bike after every single ride. I appreciate that that's what they recommend but in my view that recommendation is a bit of a cheat. The whole point of these corrosion protectors should be that they protect one's pride and joy from the elements for a reasonable period of time. 1 ride is not a reasonable period of time in my view.

ACS TC200 is very good too, but because I use a compressor, it's not suitable for me. Cheers, John

Impressive dedication. Could you do a test on already rusted pieces to see which (ACF or XCP) slows down future corrosion more after applying? ACF-50 Is marketed as penetrating under the rust layer and blocking it better, whereas XCP seems to be thicker and stickier so it might not penetrate as deep into an already rusted surface.

I had brand new OEM exhaust pipes and cat converter for my R1 that had gone rusty from several years of storage. I sprayed them all head to toe in ACF50 and left them wrapped up in bubble wrap for a few months. When I came to sell them most of the rust just fell off. Looked brand new. Amazing stuff, however lesson learned: spray before storage.

@bennettsbikesocial 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks very much! If I'm putting it on with a compressor, I don't need to wipe much off, but either way yes - I keep a microfibre in a sealed bag for wiping off some excess, but I don't worry about letting it soak more than the five minutes or so it's on there. I can then use the rag for wiping plastics. I do the same with ACF (which leaves black plastics looking great). Most of the bits I'm wiping tend to be painted, so damage not withstanding, they don't need much. I really spray it thick down frame tubes and into the swingarm (where I can), then just leave it. Hope that helps! I'm in the middle of doing this test again, to include some other products, as well as a new XCP 'Clear Cote', which is a lighter version... so far it's looking very impressive.

I mean can you use 2 different product for the same motorbike? thanks

@bennettsbikesocial 3 жыл бұрын

I don't think it'd cause you a problem, but I guess that a product like ACF-50, which stays more liquid (and is still a good product), might prevent another one from adhering as well, so ideally you'll clean the bike thoroughly first. If you bought ACF-50, don't worry! Just keep using it until you run out, then see what you fancy doing. I'd just use it more frequently than some of the others.

The ACF50 is meant to stay liquid .. so it can creep on a nano scale to get into those tight spots and microscopic fracture in the paint surface ... it's always spreading until it's physically removed . That's why it's used so much in the aerospace industry ... it gets where you can't see or reach .

nice to know how rusty steel gets, but steel needs a layer of zinc , do another test on aluminium (that counts) , you will get completely different results

Wd40 is sold as a corrosion inhibitor it was developed for atlas missiles in the 50's. Gt85 is not its a lubricant. The products are different animals and they are both made by the wd40 company as is 3 in 1 oil. Always watch your videos great stuff

Im really glad I live in a country where salt isnt applied to the roads, let alone even get snow on the road lol.

I wonder how better the others would have faired if like the fs365 they were reapplied regularly too.

Have a read of the full articles in the link: bit.ly/rustproofers Obviously they'd have done even better, but that's why I've tried to make it as clear as possible, and used each product as the manufacturer intends

Should try Lanoline rush protector a coating that can't be blown off with 3000psi power washer, if its good enough for sheep it good enough for bikes, sheep are out mountain biking all year round!!!

Can i use any of the mentioned top performing products on fishing reels with it dissolving plastic parts and or fishing line?

@bennettsbikesocial 3 жыл бұрын

Probably. Maybe. But as there's no fishing line on bikes, I didn't test that! Best bet is to narrow down the options, then contact the manufacturers. XCP, ACF and Scottoiler will be easy to speak to, and will have data sheets that should make it easy to check material compatibility.
