If you want rust prevention use fish oil. I think Rustoleum is fish oil based.

Each spring and fall for the past several years I used a tin can & paint brush with drained petroleum oil, gear lubricants and grease on rusted areas. Draw back is the flash point temp. Now I use canola oil to slow down rust especially the rocker panels. Not sure what the flash point is but I have trouble keeping it lit so I assume its less of a danger then petroleum lubricants. Draw back is washing the vehicle but at least its biodegradable rate is faster (I think). One thing I like about these oily liquids is it appears to penetrate & wick somewhat. They also cake up with sand & dirt. It still amazes me out at the junk yards these parts coated with this gunk are relatively well preserved. One of the reasons I started using canola oil was because of something someone mentioned about coating steel to minimize oxidation and its adhesiveness. I apologize to whomever brought this to our attention for not crediting you directly. I also hope I understood it correctly. So far I'm happy with the results or else cut out the heavily rusty metal, weld, paint.....
