Nothing whatsoever to do with cars. This is for the program I'm writing at the moment, on highway construction.

I think raw nails are referring to uncoated nails. They are not coated with any anti-rust or similar coating. Just plain metal....

Uncoated and  made of a material that will rust.

I like raw veggies but will not use an uncooked nail.
