Eye protection young man
I’ve had my Tacoma sprayed by Krown in Stanley NY twice now, and every spring just before I bring it in again, there has been rust starting on my lower control arms, rear axle, Leafs, tow hitch, and spots on the frame here and there. Now I’m sure it would be WAY worse if I hadn’t done the Krown spray, but this stuff isn’t a miracle in a can. This time I might paint over the rust spots once the Krown product dries, as an experiment
Did it get on your inside door panels . and on your sets .y did he not close the doors when he was spraying in the tailgate ? 👍🇨🇦
Do some research on effects on plastics and rubber.
I do undercarriage wash and, WD40 then 0W motor oil. But I'm poor boy and like to do my own work. I paint on with a brush. Use a cardboard to catch drips. Jack and Jack stands are useful.
It just makes me wonder if there undercoating Is so great WHY IS THAT LIFT SO RUSTY!!!
What does this process cost for a Tundra like Eric O is getting Done ? @SouthMainAutoRepairLLC
What happens to the krown when it's applied to something that gets hot like Exhaust or manifolds or headers and mufflers Egr Pipes stuff like that ? @SouthMainAutoRepairLLC
Did they detail your interior.
Which you like better this stuff or Fluid Film?
What was the cost?
I just watched Repair Geeks video testing several different undercoating/anti-rust products. Crown had disappointing results. Hopefully, the stuff they spray in their shops is better than the stuff they sell in the spray can.
After 3 months, my car looks like I never went to Krown. My friend told me that they didn’t spray under my car because there’s was no residue, like really nothing on the metal. I called Krown and the owner said that its normal, that the metal absorbed the product and its working from the inside… I didn’t look at the guy when he sprayed my car, so I try to trust the owner but I have doubts…. My friend uses the Krown product for his cars for many years and I trust him when he says that they didn’t do it… But the owner seems really clear that its normal that my car looks like this…. I’m confused.
test PFC undercoating vs PB Blaster Surface Shield
If i knew i was gonna get this good of a application i would always go to krown. Unfortunately last few times iv crawled underneath and been amazed at how many dry spots there was, and or spots they didnt even bother to spray. Hence why i do it myself
Now.
no way the average krown shop is this thorough
can u spray it on exhuast clamps or stay away from exhuast system?
Great job! Worth every penny! Get it done every year or two and that vehicle will NEVER RUST!
I've used Krown since 1990. That 1990 Toyota Tercel was bought new and sold 16 years later rust-free. My other 1999 Honda CR-V was bought new and sold to my friend when it was 13 years old. It is now 22 years old with a bit of rust simply because I last sprayed it in the fall of 2012. I apply Krown T40 myself. I also do not drill holes as there are enough access holes in the vehicle.
So my question is you talk about truck being clean underneath does it need to be power washed before bringing to your shop to have krown applied also what about the oil mist in the cab
Am I being nik piking cause my local oil rust proofing shop wears them white disposable cover alls throughout the process not to get those fumes all over him!
Is Krown oil product the same as other oil rust proofing products being used elsewhere?
Thanks for the informative videos!
I had this done recently all good, as it gets everywhere I'm experiencing brake fade
No safety glasses
How much did that cost to do
Krown is an awesome product. I get my truck done every spring!
U r getting a special treatment they never put that much
I go to my local place for this treatment and I can tell you that they are not as generous as yours. I finally decided to apply fluid film after sawing one of you're video on that.
This will also kill all the roaches….I hope they spray the break pads also…
I swear by this process. Been doing my vehicles for years(decades). Keep in mind it still requires a good person to apply so select a good operator just like you select a good mechanic.
Can this be done if a vehicle has already been exposed to the elements?
What about the overspray into the cab and particularly onto the upholstery?
F breathing that up for a living every day
Ah I c things looked dark and couldnt see it was the video
They blow off everything befor or are they applying the krown
Looks like the spray/mist was coming out of everywhere inside, doesn't this get oil residue all over the interior?
Obviously this guy is not the person who buys this product for the shop. HAHA
When mechanic buys tundra…….
When you buy an expensive phone you always buy a good case for it and a screen protector to look after it. If you're going to spend tens of thousands on a vehicle, this to me would be the equivalent investment. I hate seeing newer vehicles aging badly because their owners are 'credit rich but smarts poor'. I buy my cars from auction and never pay more than $5000 for one, so this to be would be overkill, however if i were to spend 'truck money' then i'd be the first in line at Krown.
So are they always this thorough, or only because he knew you were filming?
How many times is he going to spray the brakes and exhaust,!!!!
I'm guessing eric-o got twice the undercoat that the majority of people got!
You need to carefully pick your KRC shop because some aren't as thorough as others. Also, it appears that they don't spray directly inside all the chassis holes which is where rust grows out if sight!
That Krown junk must be water based. Have to reapply yearly. The kid applying it didn't even have any eye protection on spraying under the truck. Sprayed the front brake rotors down LOL. NO SALE!!
In twenty years I’ve had five vehicles, used and new, some already with surface-rusted bellies, wheel wells, suspension components etc., and I’ve had Krown done yearly on them all. The new one I had (2011Tacoma-wish I never traded it in) never developed any rust in 6 years of Canadian Ontario winters, save for some few, scattered small patches superficially on the frame rails. None of the cars I had where some rust existed never got more rust. I’m sold on it.
Also, my weather stripping was never damaged on any. Always stayed supple. I think some rubber, natural-derived, can get affected.
The driveway I don’t care about, nor do the holes they drill. I hate rust, and a rust-repaired body in my mind will never be as structurally sound as the original, not to mention the reemergenc3 of rust through such work if not a high quality repair.
You don't get that much material and labour time if you are not a youtuber and dont show up with a camera.
OMG you are the 3rd youtuber that goes to that same shop! You either all live in the same area or there is only 1 shop that does this in the US! Either way that is not a good sampling in terms of shop diversity………..
That product looks like it will help your vehicle survive a few years longer. So glad I don't have to worry about any rust problems here in Southern California.
Maybe I missed it, but what’s the cost of such a job?
Eric, hats off to you, this was really really clever. This is what I'd call a Symbiotic video. By filming and posting the whole process you help these guys at Krown get more exposure and advertising, and also you get the best service they can provide.
I'm sure every customer gets the same treatment and also I'm sure they are famous already and have a good reputation. But a video like this one doesn't hurt anyone, They get free advertisement, you get a perfect service and we get to watch and learn. It is a win win win situation. And yet,,, some dudes out there dislike.
