Thread: Rust in the barrel.

Where is your safe located? If it's next to a retaining wall you might be getting damp through that way.

No. just in the garage.

I would say there's half your problem.
On a rainy day in a typical metal safe humidity will be high.
You could also try a wardrobe heater.

Last time I was home I had a look in my Dads safe...its in the garage as well surface rust to the shot guns in there. So I had a look for the the Napier VP90 Total Corrosion Protection product that we us in the UK! It's very good stick one to the inside of your safe each year date it, and replace it as it expires. Trouble was that I could not find it in NZ even though it's invented by a Kiwi.
If you look on Amazon you may be able to get some.
Or try some shoe beans moisture sachet

As a side note I have rifles in the uk and the safe is against a retaining wall, no rust since using the V90's
