Chris K. definitely will consider giving that a try! this was the first thing I ever used that really held up over the years. But it's always good to hear new suggestions! Thanks!

Already been subscribed when i found your transmission removal vid! Want to get more ideas in my head on how to build a custom roof rack for my 83 blazer to hold a kayak, tire, roof tent and more!!!!!!!! Thanks bud.

[@OdysseyOverland4x4]

Glad you are enjoying my videos! I promise you there will be a video soon on the roof rack! I am going to be picking up a soft top soon, so it'll be a lot easier to explain when I get the top off! Cheers!

is this better than fluid film

[@OdysseyOverland4x4]

Yes, because it's not a fluid film. It's a hard wax, so it really sticks to things and doesn't wash away easily. Also, being that it dries hard, it won't collect dirt and debris and fluid film will. I've tried a lot of products. Nothing really works like this thing does.

[@OdysseyOverland4x4]

It's not, hence why application every few years is necessary. Although it is good stuff. Besides, it's a matter of logic. If you are going to use good paint for your frame, that's a good start. Then add this on top, now you're better covered

Unfortunately my truck is from up state NY so the rust is really bad on the body. I will have to replace floor pans, rockers. But the frame is pretty good. I think this would work good for that. Who would I purchase his product?

[@OdysseyOverland4x4]

Adam llaneta my truck is in North Jersey and I make frequent trips to all of NY. Yes it works, and works well. But take your time to take as much rust off as you can (doesn't HAVE to be perfect, but close), and take off necessary body panels to get at other places. The reason why this method works so well is because if you paint anything thick (say POR15 or some undercoating) then you'll have a moisture trap that will eat something away before you can catch it. Use light paints like what I had, and the wax afterwards creates the necessary moisture barrier. If you don't de-rust perfect or paint perfect, the cosmoline will take care of that for at least 5-7 years. Just reapply once every 2 years on high wear spots (wheel wells, behind bumper) and you'll be ready to rock. I found one case was enough for me whole truck. Spray it in your doors and in your rockers. Junk up whatever you can so it'll last.

Cosmoline is what's on polished car parts like brake rotors, drums, engine internals, timing sets, etc. when shipped from the factory. It's also soaked on that brown paper that some parts are wrapped with like bearings. "Brake parts cleaner" easily removes it (why you use it, too. You don't want slippery brakes).

[@AZDESERT2024]

Amsoil makes the same type product , it's called Heavy a Duty Metal Protectant - leaves a dry wax like coating. Works great.

[@OdysseyOverland4x4]

S H I'll have to give that a try sometime!

There are new products on the market that will convert and even coat thicker rust from further deterioration.

[@OdysseyOverland4x4]

Not really. If you think about it, It's hard to make that work. Since rust is so porous, and also flaky, it is hard to prevent moisture and air from touching it, which will further cause damage. However, this is why products like this do a good job. Being a waxy substance that doesn't really ever dry rock hard, it can deform with the rust, and the oily nature of it can get into the pores of the rust to prevent further deterioration

Better than por-15 and chassis saver ya think? Im gonna be coating mine in chassis saver

[@OdysseyOverland4x4]

Stinky Potatos POR15 is a great product, but if you are going to be coating a rusty frame, the prep work would need to be perfect. If you're going that route though, you can always add the cosmoline afterwards on top of your POR15!

[@SuperCheese88]

Have you tried spraying the cosmoline on a color other than black? Just wondering since it says it's "clear". I've tried other products that say that and sometimes they add a tint or yellowing.

[@OdysseyOverland4x4]

SuperCheese088 it does have a bit of an Amber color. It isn't perfectly clear by any means, but not enough to where it really makes an appearance on black. I have sprayed it on green and grey components with minimal show, but I'd suggest spraying into a rag and wiping on so it's as thin as possible. This stuff is strong though. What are you trying to spray it on?

[@SuperCheese88]

The underside of my Jeep. Haven't decided what exactly I'm going to do but I tossed around the idea of painting a few pieces whatever color I paint the body. The unibody is going to be black from some product I haven't decided on yet and I'll probably spray this stuff on as well since it's not that much extra. Thanks for the answer and idea.
