Explanation:

Aluminum "rust", or oxidation, is not the red kind found on iron and steel. In fact, aluminum oxidation occurs extremely easily but is not a much different color, nor does it build up over time like rust does. Aluminum oxide actually protects the aluminum from corrosion. It is 'self healing' -- if you scratch it, the scratched aluminum will re-oxidise very quickly.

Aluminium does not corrode easily because it reacts with atmospheric oxygen to form a thin layer of aluminium oxide over it. This layer prevents further corrosing of aluminium.
