AMSOIL MP Metal Protector is a spray-on lubricant and corrosion inhibitor that cuts through rust, displaces moisture, and leaves lasting protection on metal surfaces without gummy residue. It handles the jobs you actually need done around the shop, garage, boat, and house, all in one can.

Rust, seized bolts, corroded electrical connections, squeaky hinges. These are everyday problems, and most people reach for whatever spray can is closest. The trouble is that many general-purpose sprays leave behind sticky film that attracts dirt, or they evaporate so quickly they offer almost no lasting protection. Saltwater environments, coastal air, and winter road salt make things worse, accelerating corrosion on everything from trailer hitches and truck frames to electrical terminals and lock cylinders.

CUTS THROUGH RUST AND FREES FROZEN PARTS
MP penetrates deep through rust and corrosion to restore movement in seized bolts, stuck hinges, and frozen mechanical components. The formulation works its way into tight spaces where corrosion has locked parts together, breaking the bond so you can get things moving again. Whether it is a rusted trailer hitch pin, a corroded battery terminal, or a stuck throttle cable, MP gets to work quickly and reaches areas that thicker products cannot.

PROTECTS AGAINST CORROSION IN FRESHWATER AND SALTWATER
Once applied, MP leaves a protective film in place after the carrier evaporates. This film guards metal surfaces against rust and corrosion, even in saltwater environments. That makes it a practical choice for marine hardware, boat trailer components, outboard motor exteriors, and any metal exposed to road salt or coastal conditions. For best results, do not wipe the surface after application. Let the carrier evaporate and leave the protective layer intact.

DISPLACES MOISTURE AND PROTECTS ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS
Water intrusion in electrical connections and ignition systems causes misfires, corrosion, and intermittent failures. MP displaces both freshwater and saltwater moisture, making it effective for drying out and protecting spark plug boots, distributor caps, wiring harness connectors, battery terminals, and other electrical components. Disconnect the power source before spraying.

LUBRICATES WITHOUT GUMMING UP
Unlike products that leave behind a tacky residue that collects dust and debris, MP lubricates moving parts and silences squeaks without gumming up mechanisms. Locks, hinges, latches, sliding tracks, running boards, throttle linkages, and cable assemblies all benefit from a lubricant that stays clean. The silicone-free formula is compatible with plastic, leather, fabric, vinyl, and paint, so you can use it around finished surfaces without concern.

CLEANS METAL SURFACES
MP does double duty as a cleaner, removing light surface contamination and oxidation from metal parts. It sprays into hard-to-reach areas, making it useful for detailed work on small mechanical assemblies, electronic potentiometers, audio equipment contacts, and precision instruments.

COMPATIBILITY AND USAGE NOTES
AMSOIL MP Metal Protector contains no silicone. It is safe for use on plastic, leather, fabric, vinyl, and painted surfaces. Shake well before use and spray directly onto the area to be treated. For maximum corrosion protection, allow the carrier to evaporate naturally rather than wiping the surface.

Available in 4 oz. and 8.75 oz. spray cans. The 8.75 oz. spray cans are available in Canada with stock code CMP.

Multiple verified buyers have directly compared AMSOIL MP Metal Protector favorably to WD-40, describing it as a superior penetrant and non-sticky lubricant with better anti-rust properties. Users highlight that it cleans metal surfaces outstandingly, frees frozen components effectively, and lubricates without gumming up mechanisms. The product carries a 4.9 out of 5 star rating based on 97 verified reviews.

How should I use AMSOIL MP Metal Protector on squeaky hinges, stuck bolts, and electrical systems?

AMSOIL MP Metal Protector can be sprayed directly onto squeaky hinges, locks, running boards, and other moving parts to silence squeaks and provide smooth lubrication without gumming up mechanisms. For stuck or rusted bolts and frozen components, it penetrates to break through rust and free seized parts. It is also excellent for drying electrical systems and deoxidizing electrical and electronic contacts, as verified users have reported success cleaning potentiometers and audio equipment contacts.

Is AMSOIL MP Metal Protector safe to use on electrical components and electronic contacts?

Yes, AMSOIL MP Metal Protector is described as excellent for drying electrical systems and works effectively as a penetrating oil on electrical components. Verified users have reported successfully using it to deoxidize electrical and electronic contacts, including potentiometers in sensitive audio equipment, without damage. It displaces water from electrical connections, helping restore proper function and protect against future moisture-related corrosion.
