It shouldn't rust after only 2 days. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) Rain, maybe some left over road salt, sand, and constant vibration and abrasion... It's gonna rust. Maybe not a lot, but it will. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Bonehead@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago (2 children) Not after 2 days. High grade stainless steel, which these trucks are obviously not using, will take a lot longer than that even with abuse. That's the entire point of stainless steel. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago It’ll still rust dude, it’s only a matter of time depending on grade.

One person found it started rusting after washing with soap and water. There is no excuse for this.
