    Browning ZeRust

    I got a message today about a product that I have never heard of before or even seen an advertisement about it. It is called Browning ZeRust, VCI capsule for the gun safe. Supposedly puts a vapor of rust preventive mist into the air and on the guns in a gun safe. Supposed to last a year. Anyone have personal experience with this product? Thanks, james

    Not that product, but I have put paper and chips into dry boxes for years. It works.

    Zerust is a brand of VCI, Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor. A chemical is released from a plastic film, tab, or similar, that chemical bonds to steel and iron preventing it from oxidizing.

    They also sell poly bags with it incorporated, and I store a bunch of rifles in those bags.

    The stuff works. Browning is just labeling it.

    I would not use it in my safe, it is opened several times a week and the chemical only works well at a certain minimum concentration.
