rustproof
Immune to corrosion
Rustproof describes materials or coatings that resist rust—the reddish corrosion that forms when iron or steel meets moisture.
A rustproof coating protects metal surfaces; rustproof screws won't corrode outdoors.
As a verb, to rustproof is to treat metal against corrosion: We rustproofed the undercarriage before winter.
