Anti-Rust Additive

Ok so I'm pretty sure it's been posted here before but can't find it for the life of me lol. So the other day I had the intake horn off and I noticed a little rust in the head wich I'm assuming is because of the water injection. So does anyone know of a additive of some sort I can add to the water/meth mix to keep the rust from getting worse?? Thanks guys

Soluable oil? Machinists use it in thier coolant, and we used it in our race cars (never freezes here)

In the snow manual it says to run it for 10 minutes after injecting water. That would dry up any water left in the intake. Especially if you build boost a few times to get the air hot!

I have a 1 gallon steel can that PREVIOUSLY had a paper lable on it.
I purchased it at a machine shop supply. It does not take much, oh, and it will turn water opaque white!
