The other day I emptied out my Metro Vacuum and noticed a significant amount of rust on the inside of the canister and on the outside of the bag. Has anyone else ever experienced this issue?
I rarely use my vacuum, so I don't check it that ofter. It's probably 3-5 years old, I'd have to look it up to be sure. I never use it on wet surfaces since it's not a wet-vac. I'm assuming the problem comes from humidity since thats the only thing I can think of. I'm also thinking maybe condensation from using it in cooler weather and the motor getting warm.
Again, is this a common issue? Will Metro do anything about this? Eventually it's going to rust through.
