Final Coat protects vehicles using Electromagnetic Induction Corrosion Control Technology (E.I.C.C.T.®), a patented, non-cathodic corrosion control technology developed specifically to help protect painted galvanized and galvannealed automotive body panels.
Unlike conventional electronic cathodic protection systems, E.I.C.C.T.® does not rely on an impressed-current cathodic protection process or require an electrolyte path between an anode and the area being protected.
Instead, E.I.C.C.T.® uses electromagnetically induced surface currents that spread across the vehicle's metal body panels and interact with the corrosion process.
E.I.C.C.T.® has been studied through laboratory testing and published scientific research, providing a distinctly different approach to automotive corrosion protection.
No. Final Coat's E.I.C.C.T.® is a non-cathodic electromagnetic corrosion control technology.
Conventional impressed-current cathodic protection works by changing the electrochemical potential of the protected metal and typically depends on an electrical path through an electrolyte between an anode and the structure being protected.
E.I.C.C.T.® operates differently. It uses electromagnetically induced surface currents across automotive metal body panels and does not rely on a conventional impressed-current cathodic protection process.
This distinction is fundamental to understanding how Final Coat differs from other forms of electronic corrosion protection.
Final Coat warrants the effectiveness of the Electromagnetic Module against rust perforation (hole) on the doors, quarter panels, rocker panels, hood lid, trunk lid, roof, frame, floor boards and cross members. In the event that corrosion perforation (hole) occurs, then the damaged area will be repaired or replaced as determined by the warranty administrator.
Warranties may vary, check your warranty and selling dealer for specific details.
This warranty covers cosmetic rust and paint bubbling. Cosmetic rust refers to surface damage where the rusted area is at least two centimeters in diameter. Paint bubbling occurs on outside painted areas of the body panels where no bare metal or surface rust is showing and the paint is not broken, worn off, chipped, split or missing.
Installation of a CM4000 or BPH5000 module and the application of the Paint Protection are both required for this coverage.
Final Coat warrants for a period of up to ten (10) years that there will be no Cosmetic Rust or Paint Bubbling on the outside painted portion of the body panels as listed, door panels, quarter panels, rocker panels, roof, trunk and engine hood, as defined below.
Cosmetic Rust is defined as surface rust damage on outside painted surfaces of vehicle where the rusted surface area is at least 2 centimeters in diameter or larger. Paint
Bubbling is defined as a paint bubble on the outside painted areas of the body panels as listed, where no bare metal or surface rust is showing and the paint is not broken, worn off, chipped, split or missing.
