The FACTS about Oil Undercoating!

[@matttree6151]

Ive done my own truck now for 8 years it takes me about 3 hours. I use fluid film in the rocker panels and up in the front fenders and a similar product to what you used for underneath. Its survived 10 canadian winters and 225,000+ miles now with no rust totally worth getting filthy and 3 hours of time once per year from my experience. First 2 years I took it to a shop and yeah i noticed the lipstick job you talked about so started doing it myself. Thanks for the video I picked up some stuff like that long flexible tip for getting into tight spots that are a pain.

[@FlippinCustomized]

[@Peterswarahed]

Have you ever just used used oil?

[@drizler]

Rocker boxes are the first to go so everyone needs to plaster those with a vengeance till it drips. The same goes for door bottoms . Plug those slop plenty in and the drain in a half hour. I’ve done this on an old GM and it works splendidly just using chainsaw oil , cheap Vaseline and used transmission oil👍🏻. You can make your own spray tips using scrap copper tubing driller / pinched to your needs.

I believe a car and/or small SUV would be a little less than that and a larger SUV/truck would be more. I did not ask his price points for something smaller than my Escape or something larger. Since my Escape had two previous coatings, he charged me a $150 re-coating fee, not the $200. He even hit some more spots than the original guys that did my Escape in '21 and '22 but still just charged me $150. The same goes for a smaller or a larger job, ergo the re-coating fee is about $50 less than the initial application fee. As above in my post, I will be returning this time every year for a free eval to see if it needs it again or if he thinks I can skip a year.

[@sbond1963]

I’m also in NH and I’ve been using different types of rust preventatives for 30 years. I think the age of the vehicle depends on what you use. For example if it’s a new or newer vehicle, just a few years old with very minor surface rust, there is no reason to spray oil and then have to deal with the maintenance and the mess for years. Instead, use cosmoline wax. It will provide the same rust protection as the oil without the mess. If it’s 10 years old and it’s starting to flake then yeah use the oil. Just keep in mind once you use the oil there’s no going back to the wax. Also keep in mind you should not oil spray a new GM frame. The GM frame comes from factory with wax. If you spray it will ruin the coating of the frame.

[@FlippinCustomized]

They offer a wax line as well for new vehicles, as long as it’s not applied heavily it holds up on the gm frames, or you can wait a couple years and the wax will fall off and rust anyway 😂

Excellent video - Vehicles are so expensive undercoating is a no brainer. Here in the Boston area I've used oil & lately Woolswax & Fluid Film

[@FlippinCustomized]

They all work, at least your doing it

[@CedroCron]

I live in the rustbelt here in Ontario Canada where we have brutal winters with a ton of road salt. We have an oil based spray called Krown and it's Canada's Number 1 Rust proofing and they have been around since the 1980's. They guarantee no rust and will fix any that occurs if you have used the product since the car was new (or under 2 years old with less than 48,000km) on it. My van that was 22 years old had 0 rust on it when it went to the scrap yard with 500K on the odometer. It made me a believer. You can buy the cans of their product in the US and Canada and do the application yourself. It's a non-toxic environmentally high zinc oil that creeps and then produces a self-healing barrier. It eventually dries in place after the first month but it will drip like crazy for the first week. You need it to creep so it can get into the seems of welds and folded metal. If it doesn't drip, it can't creep and doesn't work. They have videos on their web page talking about it all. Krown Rust Control. New Hampshire would be my second choice. My brother lives in Boston and that is what he uses because he doesn't want to do the application himself and his Mechanic does the New Hampshire treatment. All rubbers should be sprayed with a 100% silicone spray first to keep them from absorbing the oil products and causing them to deteriorate with time, no matter what product you use. In the Krown treatment shops here, they start by treating all the rubber on your car like the door seals etc. with 100% Silicone spray.

My wife used to work for krown rust proofing for a number of years and sadly it has become big business for most of the franchises. Putting cars and trucks through every 15 minutes as they have to meet a quota. I ended up replacing my rubber motor mounts as the Krown turned them to mush. It also washes off easily underneath. I finally switched to a product called Corrosion Free and it's is so much better than Krown. It won't rot the rubber either. You can buy it in pails and do it yourself.

[@CedroCron]

@@condoguy810 That's unfortunate, I've never had this problem with rubber turning to mush. I've always had a thorough application as well. I'd love to apply it myself but I can't because of walking impairments due to a spina cord injury. I have seen the corrosion free test results and it is good stuff but the problem is trying to find somewhere that isn't Canadian Tire that applies it because those folks don't give a damn about your vehicle and won't do it properly. At least with Krown they are annually certified. I would have complained to Krown head office, maybe your facility wasn't doing it properly or using the proper stuff. I don't know. I know their customer service is excellent at head office because I called to compliment a facility and they were great.

[@jasonmorehouse3756]

What a crock of shit. First of all krown is not Canada's number one rust proofing company. You need to educate yourself on that kid. They are one of the worst products to use. Yes they will repel rust but the company itself focuses on profit over protection. They don't spray most of the cavities inside your vehicle where salt water can accumulate. And the ones they do spray they tend to drill holes to be able to insert their plugs instead of pulling the factory plug right next to the hole they drill. So they're making unnecessary holes in your vehicle. Which down the road you can actually see these new holes drilled end up rusting out around their plugs. Krown is also known for dripping a lot when first applied. This is easily seen when you drive into the driveway of any krown dealer. You'll see us continuous dark path leading from their bays out onto the street. You want the job done properly. You get a qualified guy that does fluid film. Much better. Product lasts longer and these guys actually spray inside of all the vehicle cavities using factory openings, no need unnecessary holes being drilled.

[@CedroCron]

@@jasonmorehouse3756 You sir have no idea what you are talking about. YOU NEED TO EDUCATE YOURSELF before you go shooting your mouth off about what you don’t know about. They have been around since the 1980s and have over 500 locations coast to coast servicing approximately 40,000 vehicles annually with a warranty that is backed up for the lifetime you own the vehicle. They don’t just do passenger cars but also commercial fleets. If they weren’t anything that they claim they wouldn’t be here after almost 40 years and wouldn’t be as large as they are. They also would have been sued to oblivion for their claims if the product didn’t work. They are they are in fact the largest company in Canada with all their technicians having to be certified annually at Krown on how to apply the product and which vehicles have which known areas for corrosion that require special attention and better application methods to ensure they don’t incur corrosion in these areas. Something no other corrosion proofing product does for their network of people applying their product. Having used it for decades and keeping our vehicles till the wheels fall off some 300-500k later in some of the worst weather with tons of road salt where I am later I can tell you it does work well and does stop 100% of rust in our vehicles. We have used it since the 1980s across our fleet of family vehicles. I’ll take that test case and all these facts above over some nonsense you are going on about with 0 facts to back it up, any day of the week.

[@Ash-pv7mk]

Old engine old is my go to for underbody chassis box sections etc c etc. Proven to work for over 50 years by those who know. Recoating every year or every other year. When the dust/dirt gets on it's a really tough barrier for salt.

[@FlippinCustomized]

Exactly

[@kevinoneill41]

First off I love in Western Canada. Yes, you can say this is the Rust Belt and it covers three coasts. I have a 2008 F350. I've heard everything there is to say about these trucks. It's now 2024. For 6 years I have used trans oil just soak it down. Take the tires and brakes off no calipers no routers. Every two years. Just power wash it down let it dry for a couple of weeks driving in the dry weather spray the trans fluid all over the undercarriage and let it drip for two years do it all over. No breaks no tires. Metal only

I might have missed what you do with the internal places on the doors, hood and trunk lid. I've had my 2013 Dodge Charger SXT every year since 2013 and still have no rust on it. Odometer reads 204261 km today. I live on the shore of Lake Huron in Ontario. The salt mine in Goderich supplies a lot of the road salt they use. I've had Krown Rust Protection done and am satisfied with it. I really like what you are doing and how you are doing it. I'm sure your customers have peace of mind about the excellent job you do.

Excellent video, great job with the oil film, so detailed, you cover so many important places! So impressive ...we are moving to Lincoln ME in 2 years (from Cruddy CT) and we will definitely have our vehicles oil filmed at your place going forward, we have been doing this for 3 years and even though it's messy to work on the vehicle after we get it oiled it's WELL WORTH IT!!!

I live in Michigan close to Canada, the Canadians have developed the amazing product called Krown and have brought it to only 3 locations in Michigan. I have it applied every six months on my tundra, its a annual treatment but twice a year is my preference because I put on about 16,000 miles a year and Michigan roads are no joke, it's only $175 a application, done in 30 minutes with a complimentary wash and wax.

[@FlippinCustomized]

Done in 30 min??? I question how thorough

[@MatthewFischer-k9o]

​@@FlippinCustomizedvery is very thorough, I watch them every time. There are two guys applying the Krown, each one has own is application tool, one is high volume sprayer for the undercarriage and the other is a long shank like instrument that's used to get into quarter panels, door panels, engine bay, behind tail lights and inner frame. They both do this in at the same time. I ways check they're work and make sure everything this thoroughly coated and and is saturated. Only one time I was not happy with a dry spot in my engine bay, then resprayed that who thing free of charge and gave me a complimentary aerosol can off the product to use on whatever I want.

When I moved from Texas to MI, I started using Fluid film on my 06 Silverado. After 140k miles here in MI and going on 8 winters. That truck still hasn't rusted out. Oil protects metal from rusting.

[@FlippinCustomized]

Agree

[@lewlewis6511]

Been doing my Toyota Prado (19 years old now and still rust free) and Subaru Forester like this for years, paying particular attention to all cavities including doors sills etc. I go one up and smear the outside of the chassis and high wear exposed areas such as the bodyshell inner sills with marine grease. I don't have spray equipment at home so twice a year get the vehicle up on 4 ramps give the whole underbody a blast over with ACF50, i like this product because its very thin and gets into all the different height sensors etc which are also prone to salt water ingress and penetrates into through bolts and such so when you need to undo something it comes undone instead of snapping off, plus it doesn't effect rubber bushes etc. Salt is used extensively in England too, they put it down for no reason at all most of the time. Whatever you do its better than doing nothing, which is what most people do. Good job you fellers are doing, well done.

[@woohunter1]

@@supernova1976 it’s more than just wax, my Toyota truck is 5 and a half years old, had it applied when it was brand new, and then every year after that, no rust at all. I live in the rust belt where you get about 4 to 5 years before things really start to look like Swiss cheese if you don’t get it treated. The main reason I wanted to get it done is New trucks are very expensive and Toyota doesn’t use the best steel on their frames.

Hello everyone I was in search of of a newer truck after my 01 Chevy was on its last leg and happened to find a nice 2013 Chevy Silverado that I jumped on real quick and of cause from New Hampshire lol, this truck has no rust on it and the whole underside and the door jams was covered in this thick oily dirt and I said what the heck, and then it dawned to me that the original owner loved his trucks.
