'Fluid Film' Undercoating Product

Well it's msds says it is just a light oil with a "piney" odor jk

I just buy lanolin at the drug store.

I've used it on brake and fuel lines for years. Up where the lines run through the "frame" and crap gathers. A shot once a year, and "bob's your mother's brother".

For a "light oil" it sure hangs on well. It penetrates into rust, doesn't wash off eisily, and sort of "gells" leaving something akin to a thin layer of cosmoline.

It that a matter of days? or months?

If the former, sounds like something I could use. jk

I shoot the brake lines on the Mistake about twice a year.

Sounds like LPS 3. Wonder if it's cheaper? Lanolin has been used for a century or more for preventing rust in gun barrels after firing corrosive ammo. So no new idea there.

Just bought a std spray can at Grainger, about $11 based on some rave reviews on another fabrication web site. I have not tried it out yet.

It appears to be thixotropic. That is. although it goes on kinda gloppy from either an aerosol can or an undecoat gun, vibration makes it flow. So it appears to penetrate into those crevices where frame segments join, brake line attachments and the like from the vibration of driving.

I try to do my '89 F250 once a year. So far, so good, even in our wet and salty Maritime climate. Seems not to last more than a year. Maybe half a year if your vehicle in on the road a lot of the time. (My truck gets very light use, is garaged when not in use in winter.)

Fifty bucks a gallon here in bulk but that's cheaper than aerosol cans.
