In March 2001 someone by the name CS had posted the following"
"There has been no scientific evidence that you can successfully protection automobiles with cathodic protection unless it is submerged in water.
There have been two very good papers presented on the lack of scienific basis for using CP in this application:
Baboian, R., CATHODIC PROTECTION OF AUTOMOBILES, DOES IT WORK, NACE
Paper, Corrosion/87, 1987 and Materials Performance, Vol. 26,
no. 7, 1987.
Baboian, R., STATE OF THE ART IN AUTOMOBILE CATHODIC PROTECTION, PROCEEDINGS OF THE 5TH AUTOMOTIVE CORROSION AND PREVENTION CONFERENCE, SAE p-250, Society of Automotive Engineers, 1991 and SAE Transactions, Sept, 1992.
The Federal Trade Commission has taken a firm stance against firms that make claims of protecting cars by this technique."
