No, it does not prevent salt creep. It just makes the salt easier to wipe off. I bought some when I first started (mistake) thinking it would keep the salt creep off of the shield on my light fixture.

Salt creep is an occupational hazard in this hobby!

The easiest way to wipe off "salt creep" is with a sponge dampened with hot water, then dried with paper towel..

I find 1 wipe with the sponge and 1 with the paper towel and all salt is gone.. Even if really crusty..

(Caution: Don't use a sponge from your Reef Tank.. )
