I coat all of my lures with cosmoline. I used fluid film, but I wasnt getting the bass to hit like they do on the cosmo coated stuff. I've sprayed down my boats with both too, but my Johnson stays the most rust free for the longest with cosmoline too. I do want to try some of the Boe shield.
You got me at "hellscape of Central Illinois"! I use LPS 3 for long term stuff and the smell is definitely a factor. I use Starrett M-1 for the same reason--it smells OK, somewhat like almonds. I actually think hot WD-40 smells pretty good--a bit like going to the Dry Cleaner long ago. The high sulfur oils are mostly a no-go for me--too stinky. On my gage blocks, I use the lanolin based stuff from Flexbar which smells like Easter. On my woodworking machines, where you want the wood the slide over the machine, I use Butcher's Wax. It will be interesting to see how your experiment comes out!
Pam spray oil for cooking. A friend of mine restores Vintage Hudson Cars. After stripping the paint and getting the body parts down to bare metal. He sprays them with PAM and puts them into storage. It washes off with soap and water. I’ve used it to and found it to be very effective. Cheap too!
I’m most interested in LPS3 and Boeshield. Lps was cheaper, so I picked that, and so far I’ve liked how it worked. It will be very interesting to keep to see how it stacks up in your testing.
This is great thank you, I have tried a few, INOX being the latest and Im not impressed. All Im looking for is something that I can spray on my lathe chuck etc after use with my sweaty hands. I look forward to the results especially that T9, Ive heard of it but Ive never seen it for sale in New Zealand
Nice! Glad to see you’re putting use to the new shop, and all of its available features, maybe swing out to the shop on Tuesday-Wednesday and see how the condensation build up is going, coming out of the deep freeze back to the humidity. Also on the point of condensation, I would be far more interested in larger chunks of steel/cast, something more representing the thermal mass of a machine tool and the wonderful trait of being able to hold the cold for much longer. Anyways awesome content as always! DJ
The thermal mass is a good point. I'll do another update video soon. I've been in a holding pattern for a while now waiting for the concrete work to be done. Hopefully that happens soon.
Your methodology seems sound to me. It will be interesting to see how the various products go with time. Not sure if you ended up with a silicon based one in the batch, that would also be an interesting comparison, particularly if it was one of the food safe ones.
I typically use C4 when I'm fishing, but you don't have a lot of keepers and get strange looks every now and then. C4 has an oily feel and smell to it, so it keeps the lures from rusting in the corrosive environment of fishing. I'm curious about the results you get with list of products you chose. I spend almost as much time fixing and preventing rust as I do building things.
The uk has just come out of a 'cold snap' last week it was -4'C , yesterday -2'C , today 10+ and wet. My work shop would have been dryer if I had sprayed a firehose through the doorway. The machines I coated with wax dissolved in WD or white-spirit looked ok , I haven't worked up enough strength to look at what a mess the other stuff is in.
Here's something I think you should add to your trials Stuart, no particular brand, but, motorcycle chain oil any of the brands that say "won't fly off."
I think I'm going to do another one focusing on "home brew" inhibitors like this. So far people have mentioned Pam cooking spray, Pledge, and paste wax, and now this makes number four. Thanks for the suggestion!
I would probably lean towards the LPS 3. It goes on thin and dries completely so you'll still be able to use the tools without getting a handful of goo.
I think they all suck in some way. For long term and maximum ass pain removing, I say cosmoline. Ya did miss a popular one that I absolutely adore. And that is CorrosionX, the smell is wonderful! I use CorrosionX Aviation on everything that goes flying. I spray and wipe everything on the plane down with it, flight control cables, inside closed off areas, you name it. If I can get to it, I hose it down. i especially have a problem with exterior panel screws not releasing 1year later after maintenance. So now when we put the plane back together, all screws get reinstalled soaking wet with this stuff. Next year, they release easy peasy.
I'm sure I left out a great number of products. Maybe I'll do another in the future for products that aren't specifically rust inhibitors but work nonetheless. Someone else mentioned Pam cooking spray
Why don't you watch the progress updates that I've done over the last year. If you want the review you can just skip to the one year update I just put out.
FYI two other testers found this product to win their testing & it's STA-BIL Rust Stopper - Anti-Corrosion Spray but I figured it was worth mentioning.
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to start a second round of these in December with the products that people have suggested along with some home brew versions that have cropped up in the comment section. I'll add STA-BIL to the list. Thanks for watching!
Great video Staurt! Looking forward to the results after a few months / year.

You need to try amsoil heavy duty metal protector. Excellent stuff
If you use Cosmoline on your lures, it attracts bass like crazy. Highly recommended.
looking forward to the outcomes
It will be interesting to note the on going results.
You could test cutting/tapping oils.
That's a good idea, but I'll have to figure out how to structure the test so it's as objective as possible.

It’s canola oil.
That's a very interesting experiment. Good idea to do this.

LPS is very similar to cosmoline. Once you apply it you’ll be good for many years.
CRC 3-36 is good

I’ll have to try those next time I’ll go bass fishing.
Should you ckean the metal befire adding a rust rx onan okder vehicle?
I am restoring vintage tools. These can be applied over freshly painted gloss enamel once it’s cured right?
I'm not 100% sure. Probably so, but I would look at the directions before spraying any of them on any kind of paint.
no Fluid-Film?
Still awesome test and video.
Thank you.
I've been usingT-9 (honorable mention for aroma?) but am eager to see how they all fare..

I'm not looking forward to that. Our cold snap is coming this weekend. We'll be hovering around 0 Fahrenheit/-18 Celsius Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
@@StuartdeHaro -18 , bugger that ! I'd move south
@@wktodd Oh I forgot to mention the 50 to 60 mph winds (80 to 96 kph). These are the perks of living in a flat place with very few trees.
@@StuartdeHaro you have a different definition of 'live' than I. 8-) Take care and, have a good Christmas

Between sp400, cosmoline and lps 3 which would work best for protecting hand tools from rusting?
I would probably lean towards the LPS 3. It goes on thin and dries completely so you'll still be able to use the tools without getting a handful of goo.
@@StuartdeHaro great, ive heard camellia oil does help with protecting tools from rusting too.
Are you planning on reapplying at intervals or are you just going to do the initial coating and leave it at that?
The plan is to do just the one coat and see what happens.
I like Fluid Film. It's lanolin-based so it smells kinda good.
Ah yes, good old sheep sweat!
Cool!
Fluid film, will last outdoors better than most even rain.

@@StuartdeHaro If you try Pam you have to try Pledge. It leaves a waxy film.
@@MarkATrombley Sounds good
I've never used many of these products. Just the usual suspects. But one big factor for me would be how easy it is to remove the product as well
I had not thought of that aspect of it. I guess I've got another experiment to run!
LPS no need to go further
Use used car oil
yeah no real review or input. Really lazy video.
