Question: Will oil, lubricants, or transmission fluids effect ARMOR’s VCI performance?

Oil, lubricants, and/or transmission fluids typically do not have any adverse effects when used together, other than they would inhibit the full potential of the VCI. ARMOR VCI was developed to be used on parts that are clean and dry (free of RPs and oils). If parts are coated with these types of liquids, the VCI may not be able to penetrate through the coatings to get to the metal surfaces.

ARMOR VCI, will however, protect recessed areas or other areas where the oil/lubricant/transmission fluid is not, thereby guarding against corrosion in that regard. ARMOR recommends lab testing if there is concern regarding compatibility.
