[@PeteyMcSavage]

Love fluid film I use it a ton even tried it on toast once.

[@QuickSpeedShop]

I haven't eaten it, but I also use it on all kinds of things besides cars.

[@jimsvo4486]

My dogs love to lick it off my car. A lab and a husky must be sheep lovers.

Hello from Vermont! I have been using surface sheild last 2 years. This year switched back to fluid film due to cost and availability near me. Great video's on undercoating. Plus this year, i will be undercoating my SxS.

[@QuickSpeedShop]

Thanks 👍

@@QuickSpeedShop I started to use FFilm 3 years ago because of your FF comparison truck video , thank you! It works

[@QuickSpeedShop]

Awesome!

[@Grudzien34]

Thanks , really cool video, thanks for tips.

[@brucekrolikowski2882]

Great video, I've been doing mine for the past few years, unfortunately I bought a used vehicle with some minor surface rust. Luckily it's been keeping it in check. Every year I still find a area that I overlooked.

Again I appreciate this Video, Not Enough people are Aware of this maintenance, here in Toledo most people have no idea why or what the point is and Idiotic Mechanics dont like the stuff under there and I even had a Muffler shop refuse to touch my Truck once because they didnt have an Idea what the stuff was and they insisted it might catch on fire from welding. So no wonder all the cars here are Junk. Ohio needs a class action lawsuit for excessive road salt usage.

[@QuickSpeedShop]

Salt wrecks everything!

[@johnnykkynnhoj]

Good luck trying to find a competent applicator in the Toledo area...

[@phase2projects363]

I have some of both products to spray on various vehicles. One is 5yrs old, rest are 10+, and this will be first time for all of them. Wanting to use this to stabilize and prevent further rusting until I can finish repairs for the rockers and/or paint the frames. One question I have, does lanolin affect the ability to weld or paint surfaces at later time? I see you can just wipe it off, but wondering if it has any side effects like silicone products causing fish eye in paint. Great video!

[@QuickSpeedShop]

It will absolutely make it difficult to paint later. The stuff creeps everywhere and doesn't stop. I will bleed out from seams no matter how much you try to clean it out you'll probably have problems. When I said it wipes off easily I mean off of painted surfaces. You'd be better to fix the rockers now, and paint the frame flat black then spray. It will stick like crazy to flat paint. I do all my truck restos that way. I fix the truck first and paint the body, I epoxy prime and flat black the chassis, then spray the entire underside last with FF.

[@Raydawg]

Good stuff there, The shop won't buy us that stuff, they will get us 3m cavity wax and I always coat my repair sections with. Thanks for the video Josh.

[@QuickSpeedShop]

Since there is new painting involved the cavity wax is easier to deal with because it doesn't mist everywhere. FF would be a nightmare inside a body shop.

[@jasoncharles6980]

Good stuff - but I wish Blaster would come out with a black version. For now, I’m mixing in graphite powder - but it would be nice to have it right out of the bucket. I also like to keep a few aerosol cans around for touch up. So - I have Fluid Film Black and New Hampshire Oil Black cans until Blaster catches up with Surface Shield Black.

[@QuickSpeedShop]

I don't know if Blaster will be out in black or not. I just use Fluid Film because it's readily available at my local NAPA.

[@hd100thjd]

Surface shield does have a black version. Seen it on Amazon. Not sure if you can get it in five gallons.

[@jasoncharles6980]

@@hd100thjd Yep - just saw it on there. Thanks for the heads up! I actually only saw it available in 1 gallon buckets. No spray cans yet.

[@hd100thjd]

@jasoncharles6980 If you have an oreillys near you I think they have 17oz. cans in black. Just picked up a gallon in black from them and did my daughter's jeep. Like it better than fluid and nh oil. Nice smell too.

[@jonathanfreedom1st]

I bought a 5 of NH oil a few years ago it has a Black Carbon tint added to it. You can also get it in clear. And it has a cherry scent to it. It eventually dries up some weeks and months later turning into a thicker coating, it isn't terrible but it is pricy. Next im just gonna maybe go with Amsoil HD. It sprays from an Aerosol can, and turns into a waxy thicker substance that supposedly last longer than these. Im yet to see. Ill test that. If all else fails used Tranny fluid works wonders😮😂 #Toledo snow plow life😂😂😂😂

[@jc-mt8ot]

i have a very similar process and am due to spray again before winter. Normally ill touch up with the spray cans when i see them onsale and then hit the high traffic spots. Can i ask what psi you run your compressor at when spraying? Ill probably get under there this weekend and do mine again for the season.

[@QuickSpeedShop]

I spray it at 80 psi. I liberally reapply to every car every year no matter what it looks like. I usually use about 3 quarts on cars and 4-6 quarts on large trucks. That being said I spray everything heavily, except for the exhaust, engine, and brakes.

[@johnmattiazzo3900]

I see the cars on south main auto in avoca ny the rusty cars crazy how fast they rust undercoated vehicles look better last way longer why more people don’t do it

[@bradwhite6491]

How’s the surface shield smell? My wife hates the smell of fluid film after I spray her car

[@TomStarcevich-fb3qo]

@bradwhite6491 smells like evergreen 🌲 trees that's the scent they put in it it's not bad I do my truck every year with it no rust at all good stuff

[@jimsvo4486]

Ha, my wife the same. I even added Peppermint oil and mixed it in the gallon of Fluid Film but now it just smells like a wet moldy sheep eating mints. I just got a gallon of surface shield today and it really has no smell.

I like the pb blaster surface shield 🛡 better Sprayed my 2021ram1500 when it was brand new 3 years later looks brand new and no rust🛻👍

[@QuickSpeedShop]

That's the time to get them!

[@thegoodinu]

Good info, except Always wear a mask when spraying chemicals.

[@QuickSpeedShop]

Thank you. You must have missed the part in the video where I said I usually wear a respirator, but for audio purposes I'm not. And you must have also missed the part where I said these products are made from lanolin, which is natural water repellent from sheep wool and is non toxic. How did I make it 46 years thru life without the safety police?

[@stelli-cat]

How much do you charge customers for the spray job?

[@QuickSpeedShop]

$125

[@stelli-cat]

@@QuickSpeedShop nice, do you know which exact pump you're using for your 5 gallon bucket I know you said you got it at harbor freight im just trying to make sure I find the same one because I've been pouring into a funnel and I seen your method and i would much rather do your way because it's less mess

[@kimbuck-2]

Does FF have any effect on rodents by chance?

[@QuickSpeedShop]

Makes them slippery and waterproof.

[@kimbuck-2]

@@QuickSpeedShop lol. I was wondering if the smell deterred them. I know they are chewing car wires these days.

[@QuickSpeedShop]

I've found dead ones in my truck covered in FF so I'd say no.
