rust

[tedglen2]

I have stuck on my plastering beading with Metal capping nails. Is there any risk that they will rust? If they do rust what can I do about it? Because house has already been plastered?

These are nails I used:

If you have already plastered, I would wait and see. You can never rule out corrosion but providing the area is free from water ingress and high moisture levels, there should not be any imminent danger!

I wouldn't have thought they would rust easily. If they are 'capping' nails then surely they should be designed to go under plaster - as electrical capping generally goes under the plaster.

I imagine these are galvanised or plated.
