Salt & Corrosion Protectants
Road salt, saline irrigation water, and fertilizer residue silently corrode your tractors, combines, sprayers, and precision ag technology. Salts Gone® removes salt at a molecular level — not just rinse it away.
The Ultimate Salt Protection for Farm Equipment
Agricultural equipment faces relentless salt exposure from every direction — road salt during winter transport, mineral-laden irrigation water, fertilizer residue, and livestock facility buildup. These corrosive salts attack hydraulic fittings, electronic sensors, paint, steel frames, and precision ag components. Salts Gone® uses chelation technology to break the bond between sodium and chlorine ions — eliminating salt at a molecular level instead of just rinsing it off the surface.
How Salts Gone® Protects Your Farm Equipment
Our three-part formula targets salt contamination at every level — from the molecular bonds to the surface finish of your most valuable agricultural assets.
Chelating Agents
Our formula bonds to sodium, chlorine, calcium, and magnesium ions on contact, breaking salt apart at a molecular level. Once chelated, fertilizer salts, road salt, and mineral deposits cannot reform or reattach to equipment surfaces — permanently eliminating the corrosion threat.
Corrosion Inhibitors
Built-in corrosion resistance creates an invisible protective barrier on metal surfaces, safeguarding hydraulic systems, steel frames, electrical connectors, and precision ag sensors from ongoing salt damage and oxidation between treatments.
Premium Surfactants
Specially designed surfactants lift stubborn salt deposits, fertilizer residue, and mineral scale while leaving equipment surfaces clean and protected. Safe for all coatings, decals, rubber components, and sensitive electronics — no extra steps needed.
Why Salt Destroys Farm Equipment — And How to Stop It
Farm equipment represents one of the largest capital investments in any agricultural operation, yet salt-driven corrosion silently shortens the lifespan of tractors, combines, sprayers, planters, and tillage equipment every year. From road salt picked up during winter highway transport to saline irrigation water and fertilizer residue, agricultural machinery faces constant salt exposure that accelerates rust, degrades electronics, and leads to costly breakdowns.
The damage often goes unnoticed until it becomes expensive. Salt accumulates inside hydraulic line fittings, behind access panels, within electrical harness connectors, and around precision ag sensors — areas that a standard pressure wash cannot effectively reach. Left untreated, this hidden contamination leads to hydraulic seal failures, corroded wiring, seized fasteners, and premature structural deterioration.
The True Cost of Salt Corrosion on the Farm
A single combine can cost upwards of $500,000 or more, and tractors equipped with GPS guidance, auto-steer, and variable rate technology represent enormous investments. Repairing corroded hydraulic systems, replacing damaged electronic control units, or rebuilding salt-damaged frames can easily run into the tens of thousands of dollars. Preventive salt removal with Salts Gone® costs a fraction of a single repair bill and extends the productive life of every piece of equipment in your fleet.
Common Sources of Salt Damage in Agriculture
- Road salt and brine: Farm vehicles traveling on public roads in winter pick up sodium chloride and calcium chloride in wheel wells, undercarriages, and brake assemblies — carrying corrosive contamination back to the farm.
- Irrigation water minerals: Hard water and saline water sources deposit calcium, magnesium, and sodium scale inside drip lines, sprinkler heads, pivot systems, and pumps, reducing flow rates and causing premature component failure.
- Fertilizer salt residue: Granular and liquid fertilizers leave corrosive salt residue on spreaders, sprayer tanks, booms, nozzles, and application equipment after every use.
- Livestock facilities: Salt licks, mineral feeders, and water systems in barns and feedlots create constant salt exposure on gates, panels, waterers, and handling equipment.
Why Water Alone Cannot Protect Your Equipment
A standard pressure wash rinses visible dirt and surface salt from equipment exteriors, but it cannot address the molecular-level contamination embedded in metal pores, weld joints, and electrical connections. When rinse water evaporates, dissolved salt recrystallizes on the surface — restarting the corrosion cycle. Salts Gone® permanently breaks the ionic bond between sodium and chlorine, so salt cannot reform after treatment.
How to Use Salts Gone® on Farm Equipment
- Hose-end sprayer: Attach our 32 oz sprayer to any garden hose. It automatically mixes at the optimal 1:100 ratio. Spray down tractors, combines, sprayers, and implements — including undercarriages and hard-to-reach areas.
- Pressure washer: Use a downstream injector to apply Salts Gone® through your pressure washer for thorough coverage on large equipment like combines, grain carts, and semi-trailers.
- Gallon concentrate: Mix Salts Gone® concentrate at 1:100 for bulk treatment of entire equipment fleets, irrigation components, or livestock facility infrastructure.
- Spot treatment: Mix in a spray bottle at 1:100 to treat precision ag sensors, GPS receivers, electrical connectors, battery terminals, and hydraulic fittings.
Seasonal Maintenance and Storage Preparation
End-of-season storage is the most critical time to treat equipment with Salts Gone®. Salt residue left on machinery over winter or during off-season storage accelerates corrosion during months of inactivity. Before storing any equipment, apply Salts Gone® to remove all accumulated salt and mineral deposits. This single step protects your investment throughout the storage period and ensures equipment is ready to perform when the next season begins.
For best results, apply Salts Gone® after every significant salt exposure — whether that means post-harvest combine cleaning, after winter road travel, following fertilizer application, or during routine irrigation system maintenance. Regular use prevents salt buildup before corrosion can begin, protecting your equipment's value, reliability, and operational lifespan for years to come.
