Has anyone ever used this or had any experience with it? It is supposedly a unit that protects your paint and body on your car from rust and corrosion. RODE means "Reduces Oxidation Destructive Electronically) and it is supposed to run off any 12 V system. Says that a DC voltage is pulsated through all metal surfaces on your car and it forms a field fluids of ions....
Was just wondering about it and I am pretty sure it's a pretty old unit. (10 years old maybe)?
Thanks!
Can you say "gimick"????
Sounds like a perversion of the ionic breeze air purifyer they advertise on TV.
That device is a bogus attempt to apply a corrosion prevention method called "cathodic protection" on an automobile. In order to work, CP requires a good electrical circuit with the earth. Therefore, it works very well on buried objects like pipelines, building foundation piles and buried water tanks. It also works very well with objects in the ocean, such as ships, steel pilings and drilling platforms. Traditional CP with anodes or impressed current does not work well (if at all) on automobiles.
:HMMM: And it work's pretty good, when you clamp them on your nipples!!!!:whacked:Quote:

And the fact that you wear one of those little pine tree air-fresheners on yer, um, well... :o
''High Milage''.........that's called praticeing and experiance!!!. And as far as the Pine Air Freshner......... You have a choice!!!...... The scent of a pine forest........or...., Minty fresh........:rolleyes:Quote:

Experience is always a good thing to have....I'd hate like heck to that engine of yours purring along nicely, only to have it go ca-put on me half-way through the trip....:rolleyes: :HMMM:
And as far as this air-freshener choice...I got you one even better than those...Pina Colada...I thought it went well with the "Cabana Boy" theme....:p
Ay......Carmbia!!:eek:Quote:

Sheesh!!!---Piggy Piggy Piggy!!! Damn, I knew there was some reason I liked you guys.
Experience is a mistake that you survived.
Ok... Thanks for the info Brian, Twitch and Henry. I figured it was a gimick. Was in a paint book I had that shows you how to paint and it showed it in there saying that some people think it works but didn't say nothing really. Kinda like they didn't care.
