So tell me how that materially affect the operation of the capacitor? I am sure you know if you live in the north, your car can still show rust and still be fully operational.

My point is that you are not scientifically assessing the damage and whether it impairs the operation of the capacitor. I am now inclined to take an old capacitor (I have a parts 630TS with rusty chassis) send it through my reform school, confirm it first measures okay then dismantle it to have a closer examination.
