That folks getting that time of year where it's getting time to rust proof your vehicles. Uh, if you don't, you should. especially if you live in the northeast or in the salt belt. Rust Belt Anywhere for your car gets Rusty and disappears.
We've got a guy's 2015 Chevrolet that's a Silverado and uh, he wants to keep it long enough to at least put two or three transmissions and 17 front wheel bearings on it. You know what I mean if you're a Chevy guy, you do I'm just kidding. not really. Uh, but we're gonna get after it.
We're going to fluid film this form I think it's been done before, probably crowned or something I See it has holes in it. Let me show you how I go about doing this. See just a regular cabs, the little guy and uh. so let's get after it.
Oh you know I like giving all these Chevy guys grief just because it's fun. So we're going to start where we always start right at the beginning. We're going to fill up our gun. We're using our 55 gallon drone full of fluid film.
We'll give her a couple pumps here a little more. There it is looks like a pudding. Uh, you know. caramel pudding.
I Guess a good pudding in the pudding cup. You know we'll put this on here. It's a pressurized one so make sure you turn on your regulator. We're going to start out using our little nozzle here I Got this thing off the Amazon Long time ago I've been able to find it since.
I'm gonna wipe the dirt and junk off it with a hanky and then we're going to start spraying under the hood. We'll do the doors with the tailgate and then we'll get up on the lift and get underneath that thing. Oh it's turned out under the hood. Uh, main thing over here is going to be getting to the insides of the front fenders so we just we go in going deep.
get her in there and I'll make some light Spritz back out at you all right We just try to get in all the openings here. make sure you get it over top of the wheel arches if fog's in there. pretty good and we're going all the way. go down as far as you can.
Cheers baby! Beautiful! I'm gonna come over do the same thing on this side. thank you Make It Rain Boys Make It Rain Foreign oh my. God she'll start fogging out of everything. Looks like this truck has had some kind of cavity wax or something before.
I'd see it kind of oozing out of things. it's real stiff gotta gets pretty hard. but yeah it's so Smoky outside today. Freaking.
Canada And then what we like to do is just come up here under the hood and see what you can see around. blasting under the batteries. they get around areas that you're not going to be able to get from underneath inside of crane members, body spots, anything that you can stick this little guy in down here on the cross member of the frame can't see that from underneath. We'll fish it right down in there.
the it. it's not a typical spot these Chevys Ride out but better sleep than sorry I Always say one of the things I Always say we'll blast here and there and then I'll just go around getting all kinds of little nooks and crannies where we can and then we're going to take the rod sprayer and spray the whole top of this. Frame Yeah, it's going to get on. so I'm probably going to get a little on the Belt It's going to get some on some of the plastic. If you don't want your truck to ride out, you're just gonna have to get past it. What did that just rain? That's amazing. Foreign people ask me like, what do you spray that Uh, here's a short hand: everything I Put it on everything I Put it on my freaking toast if it tasted better than it does, but it doesn't taste great I Don't really care what brand you're using if you're using food film Rust Check and hamster oil coating Crown You name it, you got to do something man. foreign I guess PV Blaster They've got their stuff.
Everybody's got their own flavor. man. foreign. Hood Snails Here's Hood Strings here I Think that's about it.
Under the hood folks. Now it's time to move on to the doors. So I like to do on these Chevys or most trucks. Anyways, not a big advocate of drilling holes, eh? I don't like drilling holes B I'm not always 100 sure where to drill them and see I don't want to drill through something I shouldn't.
So what I find is Typically Typically there's drain holes. There's always drain holes in the doors. You just got to find them. You got to give it.
give it a classic reach on under the rubber. Here it's been down on luck. we might have to. Let's be honest, we're getting older.
I'll tell you if I use a finger that has feeling in it. All right I Got no feelings. Oh there's a hole we go up in the drain hole and then we're gonna give it one of these. We're classic Spritz around.
Make sure your window's up there. Let me tell you what. so we'll give this a little Spritz around in this area, you know Fox Coming out of the door now and then we move along, we find the next hole. There's always more than one I'll burn that from experience there we go.
There's this guy. oh yeah, make her and then there's probably one here towards front. Most most of these bigger doors have like three drain holes. This way here you don't have to, you don't have to drill a hole and poke and hope.
hope you don't hit something if you're I'm not seeing you can't drill holes. This truck already has holes drilled in it. but and the only spot we're really concerned with is the bottom of the door because let's be honest, where's your door? Ride out all the way at the bottom because that's where all the water goes. So there's that.
Now what we can do I'll show you a little free tip here for uh, plugs like this. This here's a natural plug all natural from. GM probably has spray foam in it. Yep, so they film from with spray foam from the factory.
so this kind of sucks because you can fluid film the crap out of this. you can't get behind the spray foam. Dodge does this too. They freaking fill their body full of spray foam. That's why they rot out another way to get in the Rockers uh what? I do I do them from underneath. They're way easier to get to the cab corners and stuff on these. Chevys That's where they ride out. Um, but other trucks, other cars just pull your threshold off here.
Usually the thresholds just pop up. oh my. God You can take this up. This one has a wiring harness track underneath it so you can't get in the rocker, but a lot of other car makers you can.
That's a good way to get into. uh into the Rockers just opening the door, pulling off your thresholds and then getting into it. You know, access that way. Hopefully that makes sense to you, but a lot of cars you can get access just from underneath.
You gotta go underneath it anyways, because let's see here. Yeah, this, this doesn't get us very far. We're gonna. We're gonna blast in this area here anyways.
We're gonna let the old fog in there. We'll do the same on both sides, but we're gonna get the majority of this rocker. From underneath you'll see these Chevys are pretty wide open under there. they got some good sized holes we can Blaster right full but we just try to get in what we can while we're right here.
Open this up and then to do the tailgate. The easiest way to do it is right through the latch. I Guess I'll move you so you can see. Sometimes there's drains in the back and there is on this one.
so I'll show you both ways here. It's a little windy, you have to deal with it in here and we'll go hit it on the other side, so come over here. We'll go through the latch obstructing Us in there. but we're going to get all the tailgate, rest of the shirts.
We just give it a wiggle again. knees rot out at the bottom. That side had an aftermarket little device on there, so we this side we can go through this lower hinge. We're going all the way, so it feels like she's wadding up.
there. There we go. Oh, we kill it. Keep away.
Free tip for you. Check every little wiggle all right now. in the in the bottom of the gate there are drains and I'm going to go in this one this way and then we'll go the other way. There you go folks.
Uh, that's about it. I'm gonna get just below these tail lights here. Foreign S: You can get to it right from underneath. so I don't bother taking the tail lights out.
You know what? I mean Okay kitty, goodbye I Don't want to go inside? Yeah, come on. I'm gonna say hi to Mommy This guy's getting some other work done while it's here, which involves pulling the wheels. We gotta do a tire rotation in the service. so I'm gonna pull the wheels right now.
Leave them off. It's going to make a little easier to do the food film in a little better for you guys to see now with everything exposed. It's going to get a little noisy in here because I'm gonna kick the fan on a couple fans I ain't play him Ryan Get the air flowing that direction. We'll put on a rolling mask and then we're just gonna fog everything We're gonna get up inside the holes of the frame. We're gonna juice them up. We're going to broadcast race up. We're gonna have a good time. All right, we're all out.
We gotta go fill this up. Foreign. Thank you Thank you. Foreign.
Foreign. Foreign. right now. foreign.
Make sure he gets the cab corner is good. There's kind of a few layers of metal here. Lots of holes underneath to get in this whole rocker panel. Rubber plugs under here too if you want to take those out, but there's plenty of holes.
I Go right up through the drain hole, especially along here on the box section of the frame. You know, make sure you're sticking your wand in and just going as far as you can. Thank you. When you think you're all done, get a flashlight and go back over it because you probably missed something.
And the other thing is these: Heavies with that factory wax on there, it tend to really soak this stuff up so you'll get some dry spots. You're going to have to get back over there. We have it folks. the Chevy is all Juiced up.
Uh, definitely go over it with a light because you're gonna find that you miss things and that's normal. It's okay, we're only human. uh, particularly like I say when they've got, you know they've been painted. Probably has some kind of asphalt undercoating under here, which looks like it's holding up quite well.
but I know this truck's been crowned also and they're now fluid film. So Ted lots of treatments, but it's holding up really well. really really well. This this truck is doing really nice but like I say some of this wax stuff.
man it just it. just I swear it just soaks in the fluid film because you'll spray it. it'll be silk away. Come back.
it looks dry but it starts getting real gummy and real greasy. so whatever that is, it really mixes with it pretty well. But make sure you get everything. Uh no.
I wasn't fully douching the brakes when you saw me. We're hitting these backing plates trying to get it on the knuckle, but when you're looking at it, try to look at it from every angle. left, right up, down in out everything you can because you'll spray it this way. then you come back straight this way and you'll see spots you missed.
like here. All right, come back here. it's a little bit dry. gosh dang it.
suck at this but that's what I do. this one's sand left till the morning so I'll come in and touch up anything on this. but I gotta get a weapon for right now. Um if you if there's a lot of junk like if you're looking up in the spare tire and this thing's full of crap up in there, you got to take the tire down.
This one's she's clean as whistle, but make sure you're spraying up in there. And of course you can also kind of rely a little bit on the capillary action of the fluid. AKA When it gets warm, it kind of oozes places. All right, layman's terms there, it's got a Chevy Thunder that's what we're talking about boys right there. and then when we're all done here once I put the wheels back on it and take it for a rep. She's gonna smoke pretty good and that's the fun part. Take it for a little Drive Burn the smoke off it and you're good to go. You gotta do this folks.
If you don't want your trucks to disappear in the Pr head y you gotta spray them baby. So that's it, folks. Gonna call it quits on this one. Hopefully it gives you a little insight as far as fluid filming.
I Think we've done videos on it before, but I thought maybe it's a good time of year to bring out a refresher. Uh, because it's a good time of year to fluid film your vehicles. Some people want to do it right before winter when it's super cold and you sprayed stuff on it's like spraying latex paint and it just doesn't go anywhere. so it just does that.
uh I like doing them when it's warmer out. So right now it's June first week of June and then it's going to be July and then probably August and then again September and it's going to start cooling off here and then we'll start getting snow. You know, possibly sometime October November somewhere isn't there? Uh uh. So if I do it this time of year when we spray up in in the cavities and when we have areas that we miss a little bit, it does give the fluid film time to really creep around and you'll really see it because once a guy drives this thing in about a week or so, it's going to be creeping up the outside of the door and outside of tailgate and it makes a big old mess.
and if you're a big weenie and you can't sand your truck having like a little bit of stuff on it that don't spray fluid film or crown or Rust Check or New Hampshire oil coating or chassis saver or any any brand of any kind of oil spray out there because if it's any good it's gonna Wick its way out. it's going to be in the bottoms of the doors. it's going to be on the Rockers It's going to be everywhere as the stuff makes a freaking mess. You just got to wash it off.
The outside of your vehicle is off me personally I Live on a dirt road so I don't care and you know the dirt and stuff sticks to it and you know when I'm downtown I'll go through a car wash but it doesn't last very long. you know? Um well. I Tell my customers is especially in the winter time I Usually avoid the undercar spray. Some customers will come back right before winter and I'll just quickly broadcast spray the bottom of the car usually at that point.
Uh, if this guy drives anywhere where it's dusty, the dust kind of sticks to it and it just really binds it right to it in my opinion. Uh, the difference between my customers Vehicles who fluid film them or oil spray them rather just generic term. Uh, the difference between their vehicles and my customers who don't. It's night and day difference I mean it's not even. it's not even a comparison. Um, you know the people that don't. uh 2015 Chevy Silverado would be heading for the crusher. Most of these the rear cross members are rotted out of them.
Uh, where we put the lift up here on the front part of the frame. uh where it starts to come up over the front wheel Arch to rotted out there and then particularly uh, beside uh, the muffler with had a factory Muffler out beside the gas tank. the whole inside the frames are rotted out of them there. I mean a matter of fact I Just found 2013 this morning and I mean it's so rotted you couldn't put it out in the lift and that's just that's just a fact of life if you spray it and take care of it like this guy has.
I mean Grant This thing's only got 60 some k on it. It's probably spent some of its life out of the salt, but um, if your oil spray them, it's just. it's such a such a big difference. I'm not sitting here trying to push it on you, but I am I'm being a little pushy.
getting in your face. Do something folks. Do something. That's why I tell myself God do something I Don't know what.
but you got to do something. So do something. And when you're thinking about doing what you're going to do, think about going in that comment section. Questions: Comments: Stay and see the Facebook we're not on Tick Tock It's an imposter and if you see the guy in the street, get one of those and uh and then call me and I'll help you take care of it.
wink wink, you know what I mean and I Just remember viewers, if I can do it, you can do it. Thanks for watching foreign.
How does fluid film do on existing rust ? Medium amounts .
Any chance you can do a quick video on that sprayer you can't find on Amazon? So little options on the market now and that thing even has a blow off valve.
I truly believe in your closing statements. Thank you for saying it Do SOMETHING.
I'm up here in Montreal i've got the 5 sets of snow tires to for my family this week
to do & as the wheels are off the thing in the air the cars get their undercoating.
Even if i get it wrong & miss spots it's something & not nothing, going on asuming
that the cars will be fine without it. We've got areas under the drivers feet& where
the suspention hooks to the floor in front of the rear wheel that you just can't
ignore here. The subframe mounting points are so important. Something, anything done
and not ignored works for me. Thanks much for showing the Fluid Film.
I now know it's the same family of chemical we use up here. Brown creamy thick
goes on with a shutz gun. Thanks
It would be nice to see an older vehicle get prepped and sprayed
That truck is in great shape.
Is this something that you should do yearly?
Do you need to rust proof a Tesla Model 3? Or is it okay?
Couldn't you just own a BMW? With their gasket quality, they should self-oil themselves.
Somewhere between watching grass grow and watching paint dry. 🤣🤣🤣
My truck gets an under carriage sozzle with heated, pressurized bar and chain oil. Works very well. Helps with rust and corrosion but also helps with maintenance. Nuts bolts body clips fuel lines tranny lines. It somewhat pricey but very much worth it. I've been religious with my last three vehicles. You get more in resale too. Shows you give a crap.
Cherry bomb muffler..??
For the first eight years, I had my Chevy 1500 sprayed. I gave up after that, thinking that it wouldn't be long before selling it. It's now thirty one years old.
Although I greatly regret giving up on the spraying, I'm trying to get a few extra years out of it. Is there any sense of respraying it now?
Wow you’re so meticulous. Is this the treatment for all vehicles or just for show? That must take you more than an hour.
Thanks for the demo and advice. My chevy salesman said that the truck frames were zinc coated, they began that process in 2017. But I think he was confused or lying, I cannot find any info on frame plating by GM.
I’ve had all five of our cars Krown-sprayed every year (or two, for the winter-garaged truck). The vehicles are 3-28yrs. old, 50K-335K miles, and all are essentially rust-free. Oil-spraying dramatically changes the economics of vehicle ownership by maintaining the structural and cosmetic integrity of all of them; it’s really foolish to do otherwise, unless you’ve got money to burn on depreciation and the car-payment treadmill.
We use Fluid Film with a Graco spray gun. Works amazing!
Good demonstration of where to spray and how. It's a shame we should have to do this. You would think manufacturers should build vehicles with better protection.
Having the bulk drum and sprayer makes this a lot easier. The consumer spray cans run out quick!
Thanks for the info!
Over here in Blighty there was an ad with Barry Sheen, a famous motorcycle racer "Go on …. splash it on all over !" Of course that was nothing to do with car preserver, but hey you'll do 🙂
It's hard to find somebody to apply Fluid Film. There are other products but I haven't seen anything that tests better. The products that are more widely used by places that apply this stuff are generally inferior products.
Instead of FluidFilm, I have had better luck with ACF50. Don't get the sprayer one, just get the quart. The hand sprayer isn't worth the money because it goes on way too thick. It's more expensive than fluid film in DIY quantities, but cleanup is easier, less of an odor, less tacky, and lasts longer with less dirt pickup. I used it on a motorcycle after seeing some bikes from the UK, which is nothing but wet salt air for months and months. They all swear by it. Picked up a quart, ran it through an HVLP sprayer and get the bike sprayed with a light coat. A quart will do the bike several times over. Also works good for long term storage of blued firearms, even ones with slight surface rust. For your respiratory protection, if you don't have it already, look for a P95 or P100, not an N95 or N100. The P designation means the mask will stop oil and dry aerosols. The N doesn't work well on oil droplets.
Same company makes WoolWax made of lanolin which smells great. Perhaps washes off more than FF, but I respray every year. Wish we had this stuff 50 yrs ago when I lived in Cleveland.
Go at it with anything but WD40.
Eats rubber and makes everything else rusty.
How long does it normally take you to complete a full vehicle like that?
What brand is your undercoating gun? I have been looking for one with a small spray wand like that for getting in doors.
I use transmission fluid mixed with mineral spirits (pink) solution. Works fine also.
Colorado long outlawed banned salt decades ago, only allows sand and non corrosive de-icers. And colorado gets way more snow than the rust belt. So the problem is your corrupt government wants your vehicles to corrode.
And for self diy new pb blaster surface shield is a formula been used in Europe and Australia decades proven work more than anything else on the shelves for diy.
Dude, you're awesome! I'm 60 yr old, enjoy your banter with the camera. 2002 Ford F250 7.3 International! Ford THUNDER…
"Any hole you can get into on the body, just do it" 😂😂 That had me laughing like an immature teenager
I do it twice a year in Chicago 😂
Where is your face mask ??
I know I'm late here but going to do this for my "Newer" truck I have now. Just sent my 2006 Silverado to the junkyard due to the frame was gone. Still upset by this. But just got a 2014 F150 EcoBoost that spent it's life in Nevada. Now it's with me here in Indiana. It's very clean underneath and I want to keep it that way as long as I can.
I've sprayed used motor oil and deisel oil mixed in a pump sprayer every 6 months. Ive had an old ford that had no paint left on the rocker panels or cab corners but also had no rust.
Well worth the $$$ to protect your vehicle! Proper maintenance is always cheaper than neglect.
Comment
I don't understand why so many places use salt on the roads. Must be lobbying by the auto makers lol
UPdate us on your Toyota from a few years back, everybody is asking.
If Eric was a superhero, Rustman would be his arch nemesis.
Do you brake clean the calipers after spraying like that?
Wish there were more honest mechanics like you. Fantastic job 👍👍
hello, how, do you keep from scratching the cars without finder covers? I see you have a metal belt buckle and knife, and you missed a belt loop…lol
I started doing this to my cars once you recommended it. My 04 Vibe was already in great shape, and still is. I had an 04 Endeavor, and doing this totally helped slow the spread of rust on it until I finally got rid of it. My new Sienna I plan on doing this in the next few weeks as I prefer keeping things for a long time.
I have had a 2018 silverado for about 3 years. Ive fluid filmed everywhere underneath accept the frame. Pretty sure it says on the can to not spray on wax based frame coatings. However i see you do anyways. I would like to spray the frame but makes me nervous the coating will come off even more than it does already. Have you ever had any issues with the coating coming off after spraying. Thanks
Try spent automatic transmission fluid. Its the only thing that will soak through the rust and reach the metal. And its free.
Use Fluid Film annually on my ‘06 Tacoma 4×4 with the infamous frame. I live in SE PA. I have the original frame without rust and it’s got 175k on the mileage. Will keep this truck forever. Keep up the helpful videos Eric O!
Any concern with getting that stuff on the brake rotors/pads or rubber?
I can't agree more with you on this!
Wonder if just moving south would be cheaper? 😜
I would think you would be wearing a long-sleeve shirt to cover your skin, if not you would be a sticky mess later. Kind of like cotton candy.
Get out the good ol WD and use it for what it was made for 😊
Glad I found this video, I have a 1972 Dodge truck I need to do this to. Those trucks are notorious for rusting out and having recently moved from Colorado to Georgia I'm more concerned about it. Not as bad as the rust belt but still a lot more humidity and rain here compared to the Rockies.
kinda reminds me of years ago a small bottle with a sprayer and some oil in it would be sprayed on like joints and bushings, or maybe it was what i saw in the movies
How do you get the film off the garage floor after spraying?
how much for an oil spray for a 2016 Kia Sorento?
Very helpful. Thanks.
How many times did you fill the gun to complete the job ?
Looks like a very thorough and professional job. Far better than I do on my vehicles with the spray cans, hehe. Do you ever worry about getting overspray on the brakes? Has it ever been a problem?
Your a poet and you don't know it L o L 😊😊😊
Still baffles me how they’re allowed to use salt on the roads knowing what it does to your vehicles out there…
Living in a southern beachy area, we see different parts rust out…still the same Ford and Toyota bed rot, but the roofs tend to rust after the paint burns away. Just sold my rust free 99 Suburban 2500/diesel, now have a 2009 Suburban 2500/6.0, both rust free. 99 had the peeling paint issue and was repainted in 2002 by GM, 2009 is OEM paint, both stored outside their entire lives.
Amazon sells the Fluid Film model along with others
That camera will never rust now
Been doing FF for the last 2 years. Having done at local shop with lift. Much better job than I could do than in the dirt on my back. Question on amount of time it should take to do a complete coating and approximate cost. Mine went up $100 from previous year. Not complaining because I want a through job done . Any idea what is an acceptable cost to do a truck and not over pay ? I know nobody wants to give prices here but knowing what is in the ballpark and what is way too much would be helpful. We’ll see in 10 years if it’s worth it since I have a vehicle that has a history of rotted out frames.
You may be a great mechanic, but please dont throw that tshirt & jeans into a laundry machine since it will contaminate everyone else clothes with the stuff you are using to stop rust. Secondly, fluid film tend to freeze in winter and it also washes up gradually.
Great video and good advice, this is something anyone with a car should do.
Protect your investment.
What does a service like this go for,,, Money?
Well i was a long time subscriber from canada but sounds like someone doesnt like Canada good luck on your channel will be unsubscribing from here now people houses are burning down my mom and dad's cabin burnt and all your worried about is the FN smoke stay in side
Wisconsin here…I've never heard of this treatment an haven't found anyone that offers this. So I've had my cars Ziebarted. You have mentioned that this is a bad idea. I was hopeing you could tell me why you feel this way about Ziebart. Love your videos an really impressed with you electrical troubleshooting. As a retired air craft mechanic electrical problems weren't my strong suit…lol!
Sage advice with the rust treatment Eric. Seems dumb not to… By the way, you might be able to give some more advice. In terms of the pecking order in our house, I know I’m a long way down the list, but, are the cats above the washing lady, or is the washing lady above the cats in your house?
Why not LPS3?
Huh, that's weird, my car sprays oil over itself automatically…
How much does it typically cost
They used crushed lava rock on snowy roads where I live, no salt.
hope that stuff is not hazardous, would like to see you enjoy your retirement,
Have a 2017 suburban and 2021crv is it to late to do this? I am 79 and this is the first time I heard of doing this. We live in SWPa.
And I just wanna let you know. You teach me things. I've never knew about things that I could do. I have my own little one Bay shop at a storage unit and I woke on vehicles for people here and they are and I do and excellent job. They say now I just need to actually buy a piece of property and build my own shop. But of course it just takes time and money and getting me customers
Yeah, you do have a point, do something in. Keep the gas engines on the roads. More than the electric power to vehicles. That's all I actually doing more Moon damage to the planet and gasoline engines. Nearly reason why I know. That is because I always do my research and I always love to search the internet.
I brother keep in my classic vehicles. She meant condition especially if I still lived in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey.
And truthfully I miss living up North. I missed the snow I missed the mountains
I've even found out that the dream holds have been taped Closed well, you don't even know they're veil until your door starts riding away.
That walks in many if the possum was smart enough, take it to a shop that was the line x And have the entire under Billy of the vehicle sprayed with lynetc's lip, the exhaust of mononyisi and I have the whole on the Billie of the truck sprayed with line x.
Heck if I lived up in Pennsylvania where I used to live my 1980 seven, Chevy my 1982 Chevy my 2001 Dodge duango, my 97 Toyota Camry, my 97 Ford Mustang am I 1969. Fold Mustang would be sitting doing the winner. And i'd find some basically s*** box to drive doing the Winter
Thought you were a krown guy?
A hanky my favorite word for a snot rag! Dad always said where is your “hanky” after a huge sneeze when I was a kid. Oh and they used to double as a tube top back in the 70’s for all the hippie chicks 😂😂😂😂
Can you do my 2016 Silverado?
Thank god i live in Texas 😂
Probably just use wd40
I just got a Ford Maverick Hybrid. I can tell you that someday these unprotected vehicles will be a Poster Boy for Rust Belt Territory.
Thanks to Eric O, i found a place right here in Saskatoon Saskatchewan who does the Krown treatment for my truck for $200- . I phoned n set up an appointment. Dropped the truck off n picked it up afew hours later. Great job! Never felt happier with the results. Gives you a good feeling knowing your under carriage n truck panels are safe
Glad i live in the South!
Can i use Fluid Film as Break Fluid?
Make sure you get lots of the F.F. in your lungs to keep them from rusting .
Tranny fluid n diesel fuel works wonderful
Amazing how many people don't do this. It's horrible to throw away a perfectly good running car due to rust.
Used every year since 2020. And still zero rust! This stuff is awesome! 👍🏻
I'd like to do that for my 51 Ford. Is it normal to find a frame member full of a white powder? I drilled a hole in the 51 frame, and ended up with a neat pyramid of the powder on the garage floor. Does anyone have an idea of what it was?
pffft… WD40…
