Not all undercoatings are created the same — many “protective” sprays actually worsen rust in the long run. While thick rubberized coatings may look durable, they often trap moisture, crack, and hide serious corrosion under a solid shell. In contrast, WoolWax was engineered differently: as a lanolin-based barrier that stays wet by design, creeping into every seam to block salt, water, and oxygen without sealing in rust.

WoolWax is uniquely engineered to be applied directly over existing rust, making it one of the most effective real-world corrosion protection products available today. Unlike rubberized coatings or paint-style undercoatings that require a perfectly clean, rust-free surface to bond, WoolWax works by penetrating into rusted areas, displacing moisture, and forming a thick, self-healing barrier. Because WoolWax stays wet by design, it continues creeping into seams, spot welds, and flaky rust long after application, preventing oxygen and road salt from reaching the metal. This makes it ideal for older vehicles, daily drivers exposed to winter roads, and anything with surface rust already present. Instead of trapping corrosion, WoolWax actively neutralizes and protects the metal underneath.
