Any using CounterAct electronic rust protection

I saw the CounterAct electronic rust protection system on the "Two Guys Garage" show on the Speed channel. Is anyone using it? The website of the company is http://www.counteractrust.com/

electronic snake oil? never touch the stuff.

I'm pretty sure that would be a method to prevent rust (just trying to think back to my lone materials engineering class... didn't pay enough attention, I'm no ME ). But I have no idea whether or not it works with that particular product.

not sure if it is the same as on my sister's truck but it didn't seem to stop the rust on hers.

hers was installed at the ford dealer in toledo ohio so i doubt it is jc whitney but she hassome rust on the inside of her class 3 hitch.

I'm also skeptical which is why I posted the question. There is another product that is sold by JC Whitney that's similar but I can't connect to JC Whitney's to tell you what it's called. Maybe that's what your sister has.

Just trying to figure out a way to make the body last as long as the engine!

Don't some marine vessels use some form of electronic device for anti-corrosion? As for this thing actually working.."As seen on HotRod TV"...ummm......well...

I believe you're thinking of a sacrificial anode. The idea (I'm no chemist) is to electrically bond a metal to your car which is more "attractive" to the free ions (salt) floating about, which cause the corrosion. I think they might work better in liquid than gas environments though, which would explain why they don't get used on cars.

i have on of these on a 96 jeep cherokee that i purchased last summer. its blinks and i think its working? the truck has very little rust.body is excellent only a little surface rust underneath the truck. i remember these on new cars back in the 80's. i'm leaving mine alone and hope it keeps working.

Chance, is there any other rust proofing on the Jeep like Ziebart or something similiar?

TADC: They do work better in a liquid, that's why they are on ships. They still rust though ...
