I just "Blasted" my brand new 2024 4Runner with Blaster Surface Shield yesterday. I've used Fluid Film on various things for years and it's great. The surface shield is also lanolin based and seems to last longer because doesn't wash off as easy. I bought a 5 gallon pail and the woolwax brand spray gun set. I bought a few rattle cans of Fluid Film with the little 360 degree spray tube to get in the door weep holes and areas like that. Beyond my 4Runner, the 5 gallon was enough to do my Jeep Wrangler TJ, our Honda Odyssey, as well as my brothers Infiniti Q40. Still have about a gallon left for touch ups in later years. The Surface Shield doesn't smell very much compared to the Fluid Film. A few tips: Take off all those rubber plugs you find under the body and send an extension wand down them as far as they'll go. Spray in there good cause you should only have to do it once. Then replace the plugs. Use a 360 degree tipped spray wand to shoot product on the top of the frame rails and things like that. Just spraying from the bottom won't hit those areas directly. After doing 4 vehicles I found the 36" wand with the 360 degree top was the thing to use first in every frame hole, body plug, tight space, and frame rail top before every using the standard spray nozzle to wide spray all the rest. You'll get misted with the standard nozzle so save that for last and keep it at arms length to keep it away from you. There's really no need to buy any extension length other than the 36". You can choke up on it for closer areas and use the full length to send down the inside of frames. I had a few shorter ones, but never bothered with them. It was one go through with the 36" and a final over spray with the standard spray nozzle. Take the wheels off and wrap kitchen trash bags over the brakes so you don't have to be so careful around them. Makes it much faster and no chance of lubing up your rotors.

I'd recommend Fluid Film Black over the clear stuff. The reason is that I've noticed that if there is a spot where surface rust is present, the color of the rust is pretty noticeable making touch up spots in need of attention much more apparent. I swear by this stuff, as my daily driver is a 2009 Honda Fit Sport, and it has some areas where there is rust, and I'm of the opinion that it's stopped the spread by my spraying those areas. I only wish I would have known about doing it from the day I bought that car. The last thing I'll add is this: I'm going to put the Black Film on my 4Runner two years in a row to make sure I'm thorough on the frame. With the rust history these things have, a couple hours a year and $50-$75 for a few cans to prevent the rust is well worth it in my opinion.

@@barrysuss4421 Ideally you’d want to sand blast the whole frame. Grinding/sanding won’t get into the pits that rust creates and it will eventually return, especially in the welds.

@handyman22 Жыл бұрын
Being that this is an oil based product I am thinking it will just attract the dirt and when you go to power wash it probably most of the product will be taken off. Personal myself I prefer rockguard over this product or an undercoating product. The rockguard will not crack like a tar based undercoatings or go gooey from oil drips. I have even used it on the back side of my chrome bumpers to prevent them from rusting inside out. Before applying the rockguard you have to attend to the existing rust. This means spending some time grinding off the rust to bare metal, degreasing and painting it with a urethane or epoxy paint. Using any of the store bought spray cans is a waist of time as they will never stand up to beating your frame takes from rocks or salt. To date I have had no rust on my frame since I sprayed it 22 years ago with the rockguard. As to painting or coating the inside of your frame you are not going to get the protection if it is not cleaned first. This means firstly it needs to be vacuumed out. You would not believe how much sand and dirt works in through the side holes especially if you do alot of gravel road driving. After that if you can get access to the inner parts of the frame it would be recommended to use a cable with attached chains to rotary beat off the flakes of rust. Repeat cleaning it out with the vacuum and when you have that done then your ready to paint it. Again I would prefer a paint designed for spraying inside the frame. I think the oil based product is just going to collect the dirt and sand.

Fluid film is Lanolin based, not oil or petroleum based. Contains no solvents.

Wow I’m surprised how rusty you’re 4runner than my .2011 4runner limited. I just started spraying the underneath of my 4runner this winter with wd40 but planning to used the surface shield next time

Applies sheep smelling Fluid Film to underframe. Goes camping. Wonders why the bears won't leave the 4Runner alone...

Military grade! I love that stuff. First I recommend using a rust converter then the RP-342!

Respectfully, this is not the best product, even though it is toted as so. CRC marine corrosion inhibitor is far superior.

Why do Toyotas rust so badly. Both I owned had more rust than any other car I have owned.

DO NOT spray your exhaust. The smell will follow you for months afterwards if you do. It's not a terrible smell but I wouldn't recommend it

If the 4Runner is so great…..why is rusting a problem?
@Steve.211211 ай бұрын
Agreed. I’ve never owned a vehicle where I need to worry about this. I live in the northeast and it is necessary to spray the frame every 12 months? This is lunacy.
