In previous use, LPS3 has provided excellent protection of bare cast iron and steel tools & equipment left outdoors year round in harsh weather . Has also provided very good protection used as vehicle rust protection on heavily salted roads here in eastern Ontario.

Aircraft Spruce assumes no responsibility or liability for any issue or problem which may arise from any repair, modification or other work done from this knowledge base.

Q: Does LPS 3 premier rust inhibitor meet MIL-C-16173 Grade 2?

Yes, it meets MIL-PRF-16173E Grade 2 Class 1. Please see the Approvals tab for additional spec info.

Q: Can LPS 3 be used as primer, directly on rusty surfaces, then painted over?

LPS 3 cannot be used in the manner described. It can be applied to a dry, rusted surfaces that has had any loosely adhered corrosion removed. It will not convert the rust but will halt further corrosion from occurring. It cannot be painted over.

Q: curious if LPS 3 can be a substitute for polishing and waxing my painted Cessna 182 external fuselage if applied frequently (every 2 weeks?). The aircraft lives outside in Hawaiis salty air and hot sun.

I believe it would be safe, but it is brown in color and could stain the paint. I would not recommend it for this application.

Q: Is it safe to spray this inside an aircraft engine cylinder if its going to be parked up for a while?

This product is a common use product, not aviation specific. It does not have a specific approval application guide. You would need to check your engine manual for storage procedures.

Q: Will it transfer to wood when used on woodworking equipment like table saws and interfere with wood finishes?

Per the manufacturer: it is possible that LPS 3 could transfer to other substrates and the petroleum components could affect some finishes.

Q: What is the shelf life of LPS 3?

Shelf life is 1825 days.
