WA Consumer Protection found the theory behind the computerised 
electronic corrosion inhibitors (CECI) – that rust is attracted to a 
sacrificial piece of metal using positive electrical current – could 
only work in practice if the car it was attached to was submerged in water.

As a result, an Enforceable Undertaking under the Australian Consumer 
Law has been made on behalf of all ACL regulators.

CECI distributors High Performance Corporation Pty Ltd (HPC) and 
MotorOne Group Pty Ltd (MotorOne) have been ordered to stop the sale of 
and secure refunds for consumers who bought the devices, which were 
falsely claimed to reduce rust and corrosion by as much as 80 percent in 
motor vehicles.


[end quote]

Government consumer protection agencies would *not* be ordering these 
products off the market and people to be refunded if they worked.

It's that simple....
