I use the thinner Fluidfilm on the inside of body panels & Woolswax everywhere else. I spray during the heat of August and so far my 2010 Crown Vic looks brand new & is driven daily in the heavily salted Boston, MA area. One year I could not spray until November so what I did was fill a cooler with boiling hot water & put the Fluidfilm & Woolswax containers in this to heat them & thin the fluid for easier spraying.
Bought some Fluid Film black after watching your frame repair video and used it on my frame and undercarriage. Covered very well and looks good hopefully it will help in preventing rust. Thanks!
This dude braver than I with the duel access holes unmasked. Either way, definitely curious about long term corrosion prevention, seams relatively cheap and easy compared to Por15
Just to confirm your opinion of Woolwax and Fluid film, I've been using both and don't see much difference between the two, long term. They both seem to absolutely stop rust, especially inside doors and body panels. Both will kind of wear off when exposed to tire splash but also seem to protect even after the waxiness goes away. Also, I've found that they work great at loosening up rusted parts where you would use a rust buster spray. Just need to give it a day or two. Love both! Thanks for the post.
Fluid film washes off way to easy in my opinion. wool wax seems to not wash off so easily. Do them at work and we use fluid film but it comes off when the overspray is washed if your not careful. I use wool wax on my vehicles then immediately dry on a dirt road to get a good amount of debris to help it not wash off.
@@stankorneck9307 Fluid Film moves more? So, if part is missed after couple of months, it get covered again. Woolwax is thicker so it does not move that much. Please confirm
I started with the spray can kits but found those to be slow & alot of work. I invested in a larger compressor & the spray kit & wow the job goes much faster & you can do a much better job. Everything was less than $300 worth every penny especially when you look at the cost of new cars today.
I wanna see a comparison on EXISTING rust on the back of a quarter panel, for instance. They are touted to stop existing rust. Which sticks on in the N. E. winter weather and STOPS further rusting. Would be useful info to treat unseen existing rust in rocker panels.
It slows the rust way down to almost a halt. I have been daily driving a 1995 F250 in the winter for the last two years. It had some rust in the cab corners and wheel wells. The rust hasn't got any worse in the last two years.
@@QuickSpeedShop Oh damn, I wished I'd known this long ago. My truck came from MI, and has rotted horribly in this humid South. We just don't normally use undercoatings, but I would have started a long time ago. Maybe I can save the sedan.
I haven't filmed one, but I'll tell you what happened. Both stayed on the top and sides of tank the same. FF wore away more on the bottom on the front tank while WW remained intact on rear tank bottom. I don't know if it was because the front tank might see more road spray or what, but that was the only difference I could see.
Great video One suggestion is the temperature when you apply that even parts or whole vehicle you want the material to be warm or even the hotter it is without going crazy the more it's going to soak in it's kind of like seasoning a wok without going as high temp yeah whenever I coat a metal do it half under the smoking point hot day let it cook in the Sun
The WW did hold on a little bit more than the FF. I reapply every year so its not really a concern for me. I use FF because I can buy it locally instead of only online like WW.
After using Fluid Film Black on my Tacoma and then installing a couple of back-up LEDs on my bumper, I guarantee you that this is the absolute best catalytic converters theft deterrent. It’s gets all over you. Not saying to spray it on the cat, but try doing anything under the vehicle and you will be greasier than slick Willy.
I never filmed the follow up. I can say both held up very well. The WW lasted a little better on the bottom of the rear tank. I don't know if that is because the WW holds better than the FF or if the rear tank is more protected from road spray. In my opinion both perform well and it's a personal preference to which you use. I like FF because I can buy it at my local NAPA.
I really appreciate the quick response, I'm working with a local shop and trying to get them into applying FF as an additional service to customers....I've applied FF for years and already know the benefits of the material....your response helps alot 👍🏻
I love fluid flim but the original the black looks good but help you if you need to do anything under your vehicle with the black it will cover you in black. And don't get into your vehicle until you change.
@@QuickSpeedShop thank you so very much! You know, what would be good? Do it again, this year so we can see the part two. 😂😂😂 this girl just needs a part 2 video to be complete, lol. JK BTW the FF Is on Amazon -5 gallon price is 199. (Business price) and they deliver it to your house! We have a 2006 Toyota Highlander from GA we just bought with Zero rust…just wondering if you have a “fresh car” with zero rust to start, would you still do FF? I just wondered if your answer would still be FF if you could buy the other one locally. BTW Amazon and Walmart sell wool wax, free shipping, right to your door! 👏👏👏
Yes, absolutely start to use FF or Woolwax on your rust free car. I try to get to all the new ones before the first winter. If you search some of my other FF videos you'll see I did a 4 year comparison video of a truck that was sprayed every year since new compared to one that wasn't. I have done several friends cars new and after several years they still look new.
Have you ever mixed fluid film with linseed oil? A lot people I know do this and I am curious about the advantages of mixing FF with linseed vs. Spraying straight FF.
I can't speak for the CRC as I have never used it. I did a video on a 4 year comparison between 2 identical trucks one sprayed with FF and one without if you want to see how well the FF works.
If you use a car wash with a bottom blaster yes it will wear away at it over the winter. I just rinse under my vehicles with a garden hose once in a while.
I drive a 93 f250 instead of a Tundra now. That means I'm under the truck working on it every week.Does that mean I will perpetually have black goo on my clothes or will it somewhat dry after a month?
I reapply every year. If you search my Rust Prevention playlist you'll find a 4 year comparison test. I can yell you I have a friend who I have sprayed his car for 7 years and it's still rust free.
You really want to apply either FF or WW every year as both wash off in high spray areas. They are pretty much the same product. At $45 a gallon, I would just apply either every year.
So my question is if the stuff dries? I am partially restoring a truck and I am afraid paint would make the rust worse. Wondering if it will stay looking black or if it will just wash off.... or if it dries.
No it doesn't dry, but it soaks in and creeps in crevasses to keep rust out. It does attract dirt so be mindful of that if you are building a show truck. If you are just doing a driver that will see weather, especially winter, there is nothing better for protection.
@@QuickSpeedShop I guess I should have mentioned I live in Canada lol. We can't find the black version anywhere 😭 I'm hoping they get some north of the border for us soon!
No. They both held up really well. The WW on the rear tank stayed on completely while the FF on the front tank washed off the bottom in the front. I can't say if that is because the rear tank is more protected from road spray or if the WW holds up better. I reapply every fall so there is always protection.
Another good video. Have you ever had any experience with a product out of Canada called Corrosion Free? Also, there is a new product by Blaster called Surface Shield. Any chance of reviewing these products? Thanks.
@@QuickSpeedShop You provide great information. I agree about being able to buy it locally. Very convenient. I am still searching for a more narrow hose for my Kellsport Pro Gun. Thanks
I didn't film one. I will tell you that the WW stayed completely on the rear tank. The front tank with the FF had a bit of it wash off the bottom of the tank. I cant say if that is because the rear tank is a little more protected from road spray or if its because the FF didn't hold as well. Both stayed on the sides and top of both tanks. In conclusion, both are good products. I use FF because I can buy it locally, but WW is just as good.
@@QuickSpeedShop Thank Youvery for the update. You would have had to do half and half on each tank to really know :-0). I have been using the regular FF on my truck and travel trailer. The black FF in new to me, asside the color, is the black one the same as regular?
I still did not see the difference between the 2 product. Woolwax missed a couple spaces, FF occupied all spaces. If they are same, then why 2 products?
It's the same type of lanolin rust protection made by different companies. Both are good and work well to prevent rust. I prefer FF because I can get it locally. WW seems a bit thicker during application.
Both held on good. The WW seemed a little better, but I don't know if that was because the rear tank is more protected from road spray or if it superior. Either WW or FF are beneficial for rust prevention in my opinion.
Both held on all winter. The FF did wash off the bottom of the front tank a bit. I can't say if that is because the front tank is more exposed to road spray or if the WW held on better. Both work well. Bottom line, whether you use FF or WW both do a great job as rust preventatives and anything you drive in the winter should be protected by lanolin either FF, WW, or both.
I don't like the black so much. when I work on the car that black shit gets everywhere and its messy. the clear doesn't stain as bad. I'm sticking with the clear. good stuff over all. I use it every year for these damn salty roads.
Been pretty happy with FF. I have seen cosmoline on tools and machine parts, but it is always very stiff. I don't know how it would creep into seams and stuff like FF does.
Risings the undercarriage after winter is key and fluid film can be rinsed off much easier and reapplied. The cosmoline with get salt/dirt stuck to it and be much harder to rinse off.
Never filmed one. The WW held on perfect all year in the back. Some of the FF wore off on the bottom of the front tank. Dont know if that was due to tank location or difference in FF and WW.

If you don't mind the over spray, the adjustable "pro tip" would give complete converge as opposed to the hose attachment. Great video!

No, I haven't.

The spray nozzle works a lot better that the extension wand. Woolwax is a thicker product so my guess it may stay on longer.

Yes, the black gets on everything.
Thank you.
Is there a shine to the woolwax black and fluid film I like a dull finish
It goes on shiny. When it "dries" the is opaque, bit mixes with dirt and stuff so it makes kind of a waterproof grimy coating.
Can or did you link part two of this video? Which one ended up being better? I have been looking through your content trying to find the Spring Part 2
