Description
The steel in your structure is already on the clock. Every winter of deicing salt, every season of salt air, pushes chlorides deeper into the cover toward the rebar. Bone Dry Corrosion Stop is an amine-based, migrating corrosion inhibitor for structures that are already standing: spray it on the surface, and it travels through the concrete to the steel — forming a protective film on the bar before corrosion ever initiates.

It travels to the steel
Corrosion Stop is attracted to metal. Sprayed, rolled, or brushed onto any horizontal or vertical surface of a steel-reinforced structure, it absorbs into the concrete and migrates to the embedded reinforcement, coating ferrous and nonferrous metals alike. The film it forms shuts down both halves of the corrosion cell — anodic and cathodic — so chloride ingress can’t start the rusting process. It’s clear, nitrite-free, VOC-free, and completely non-destructive: the concrete’s existing characteristics don’t change at all.
What it does for the structure
| Function | What it means for the asset |
|---|---|
| MIGRATES | Applied at the surface, drawn through the cover — reaches steel you can’t |
| SHIELDS | Anodic and cathodic protection on ferrous and nonferrous metals |
| PRESERVES | Prevents chloride-driven rusting — extends the structure’s service life |
| DISAPPEARS | Dries clear; the concrete’s appearance and characteristics are unchanged |
| CLEAN CHEMISTRY | Nitrite-free and VOC-free |
The cheapest year to treat a structure is this one

Reinforced concrete fails on a curve: a long, quiet initiation phase while chlorides work inward, then a knee, then the expensive part — spalls, closures, structural repairs. Corrosion Stop is preventative maintenance for the quiet phase. Treat the structure while intervention is still a spray rig and a weekend, and the knee moves years down the road.
| Treat now — Corrosion Stop | Repair later | |
|---|---|---|
| Timing | Before damage shows | After spalls appear |
| Disruption | Spray-applied, non-destructive | Demolition, patching, closures |
| Coverage | The whole element — every bar | Only the spots that already failed |
| Cost profile | A maintenance-budget line item | Escalating repair cycles |
Corrosion Stop is preventative maintenance. Elements with advanced deterioration still require engineered concrete repair.
Every face of the structure

Decks take it horizontally, columns and walls take it vertically — Corrosion Stop applies to any existing surface of a steel-reinforced structure. Parking structures and garages, balconies and elevated slabs, coastal and marine structures, columns, walls, and barriers: if there’s steel behind the surface, the same spray protects it.
Which corrosion product does your project need?
| Project condition | Use |
|---|---|
| Structure already standing | Corrosion Stop — 2–3 surface coats, migrates to the steel |
| Concrete not poured yet | Bone Dry CI Admixture — 28 fl oz/yd³ at the batch plant |
Application

Good to know: apply with an airless, battery-powered, or pump sprayer — or brush and roll where that’s easier. If concrete repairs are planned over treated areas, let the inhibitor absorb for 24 hours, then remove any surface residue with Bone Dry Concrete Degreaser before patching (auto-scrub or pressure wash horizontal surfaces; rinse verticals).
