Rust protection that lasts the distance

Rusty chassis are no match for Prolan’s Extreme.

Prolan’s new lanolin Extreme product is proving to be a successful natural rust protection solution for some of the toughest testing grounds around.

The Extreme is manufactured in New Zealand using sheep’s wool lanolin and protects equipment and machinery exposed to fertiliser, sand, salt and mud.

“It’s fantastic,” says Darren Green from Ashburton fertiliser company, Green Fertiliser Spreading.

“I always had an A+ rating at the vehicle testing station without it. Now, they want to give me a higher rating.”

Prolan’s Extreme was initially developed for the Danish offshore turbine windmill industry as a long-term natural rust protection with a less tacky finish.

“The Extreme has proved itself – it stays on and protects in harsh environments, reducing maintenance costs,” says Prolan director Murray Shaw.

“At the same time, it ticks the boxes for environmentally friendliness.”

Prolan shuts off the supply of oxygen to a surface. It can be used on areas where existing rust is present and prevents it going any further.

“The preparation time is minimal – the surface needs to be clean and dry. For example, a used vehicle chassis may require a quick waterblast and wire brush over flaky rust and then Prolan can be applied straight over the surface.

“The product is easily applied using a trigger pack, airless spray gun or garden sprayer, and for smaller areas, it is available in an aerosol form. One litre of Prolan covers eight to 10 square metres – a four litre tin will cater for a five metre truck chassis.”

Murray says Prolan Extreme is a perfect coating for vehicle chassis, including 4WDs, trucks, motorhomes, loaders, fertiliser spreaders; horticultural tractors spray equipment, bridges or marine applications.
