Cybertruck engineer pushes back on claims that Tesla EVs rust in the rain — “It’s surface contamination only and can be cleaned off easily.”::A Cybertruck engineer, Wes Morrill, addressed claims Tesla’s truck rusts in the rain and said the specks of rust were the size of a “pinhead.”
And this is why you don’t buy stainless steel sinks and cars, unless you want to polish them regularly they will look like shit even just from water stains.
Edit: Stop telling me your sink doesn’t have rust on it. I’m not talking about rust. Most stainless steel will not rust. I’m talking about how stainless steel can become ugly from residual water marks, staines, water with high mineral content, etc Unless you take care of it, clean it and polish it regularly. Maybe ideal for a kitchen surface but not for a big ass ugly car.
Never seen any rust on my stainless steel sink
Yeah just tannin staining tbh
30 years of a stainless steel sink without any rust
Confidently wrong.
There are different grades of stainless steel. 99% of the kitchen sinks where I live, including mine, are stainless and I’ve never seen rust spots on any of them. I’m a plumber and have dealt with one or two stainless sinks during my life.
I’ll bet you’ve probably seen what, maybe five or six stainless steel sinks in your time?
Stainless steel which has been sufficiently alloyed with Chromium won’t rust. The chromium reacts with oxygen at the surface and forms an inert layer preventing oxidation of the iron in the steel. Cybertruck’s stainless steel simply doesn’t have enough Chromium.
Just wipe it down, then.
