this is a very simple, yet perfect review of the two products, and how they perform in a real use case.
Thanks!
Thank you for taking the extra step of spraying it directly onto the paint to give a great visual representation of how long it lasts.
That was truly a selfless act that I, nor almost anyone else would never do.
I just bought a gallon and a sprayer.
Very well done. You would make Project Farm proud.
The Black is helpfull you can see how long it last, easy to check on in the Spring 🧐👍🏻
I mix graphite powder with my regular fluid film , doesn't take much to make it black , thats all they use in it so way more cost effective to add it yourself if using gallon or 20 L pails
In my experience, it takes a ton of detergent soap, such as Dawn to remove fluid film from a surface. Regular car washes, touchless or not, won't remove it. Even car washes with the rocker and under blasters don't remove it. Even Dawn will eventually get clogged up with lanolin and become ineffective at washing it off pretty fast, requiring more Dawn to be applied.
And that's why I love this product 👌💪🏽
Me too!
Yeah that's exactly what you want, for it to stay on there.
The only reason to EVER remove it is to cut out rusted steel and weld new panels in, prime and paint them.
@@ToreDL87 Yeah, staying on is a good thing. I was just letting people know my experiences with car was undercarriage sprayers and how hard it is to actually remove.
You are correct on most car washes and salt. To get it all you need tk be extremely thorough and get all over underneath with an underbody wand, also using salt away spray at the same time. Good review
Excellent video. Was interested in how the black would work. Thanks again. Greeting's from Ontario
Thanks! I like the black a little better but they are nearly identical
They should sponsor you. They're missing out on an opportunity. Great vid! Thanks man.
Just did my ranger in the bucket of black , I like the black because i can see if its still there.
Never heard of that stuff before, good to know it exists.
Thanks for this Kurt, I'm about to have my car professionally done with this stuff.
Good idea!
Great video 🎉 Thanks for the info.
great video. I use this stuff and it works wonders on my old Jeep in the PA winters.
PA here too. I have a 2020 JL that I use it on and so far, so good. Make sure you blast as much as you can inside those frame cutouts. It will creep all through the frame if you hog it in there.
In another video someone claims the black is simply done with graphite powder, he mixes in 3/4 cup of graphite powder to a gallon of regular fluid film and that's all it takes. Buying the graphite powder costs a fraction of the extra the black FF costs.
Can’t do that with the cabs though.
@@KurtofTradeswdym?
@@whatitisnt. He meant you can't add graphite to the single-use cans, you can add to the large buckets if your applying with the sprayer.
@@henreedee will it not dilute and make it less affective?
@@whatitisnt. @whatitisnt. I'm not sure tbh, but the graphite would mix into the fluid film and just add color, they don't add a lot, but by volume it would be like 200ml/3785ml = 0.05 or 5%. So still possible to affect, maybe that's why it clings to the car a bit more at the beginning of the demonstration
Great video. We have lanoguard here in the UK, which is similar to Fluidfilm, but it isn't black.
Good stuff!
Is there an option for clear spray? I want to spot treat some surface rust to prevent spreading
The regular is more clear, not completely though especially if you put it on thick.
Does this also keep existing rust in check?
If its really light rust it will help, if its really bad or if the rust is already on the inside of the panels then it probably won't help much.
Fluid film black would be somewhat better lube because of the graphite added.
Still waiting for scented fluid film.
Hi, how many cans would you think is needed for a normal sized sedan? Also is fluid film black necessary for black sedans? And would surface shields application stand out color wise on a black car or is the graphite powder needed. Thanks for your time
You don't need to use the black its just preference, takes about 3 cans for a car.
@@KurtofTrades wouldn't surface shield and regular fluid film stand out on a black car which wouldn't blend in aesthetically?
Thank you this is well done and informative.
No problem!
How do you remove old coating in order to reapply? Just pressure wash or you need some kind of solvent like brake cleaner or something like that?
Pressure washer gets most of it, I usually just apply it over what’s left from last year
This was great, thank you!
Have you ever sprayed it inside body panels / cavities to prevent rusting from the inside
What about the smell? Does Black smell better than regular fluid film? Thank you.
Smells identical
@@KurtofTrades Oh no.... 🥲
It goes away after a day or two
@@KurtofTrades neither I spray it wrong or too much.
The smell is still there after like a week.
Whenever it’s raining, it’s even worse.
I could only smell paraffin wax when I used Fluid Film Black. The MSDS also says paraffin wax as main ingredient. Not sure why they claim it's sheep oil.
I use Surface shield by PB Blaster
It doesent creep as good as FF?
Thank you for this video.
Amazing, when reapplying this product what would be the best technique is pressure washing before use enough to prep it?
Yea that’s probably the best just make sure it dries off fully before applying. I usually don’t do much prep
Great test! Could u do similar test in the future FF vs Canadian Corrosion Free Rust Cure pls 🙂
Can you do a comparison video comparison of wool wax vs fluid film
I should yes! Good idea.
@@KurtofTradessurface shield too 😄
Im getting a new vehicle. Should I wash underneath it before applying for the first time or does it matter. We are already in winter so there will be probably some salt underneath
I would try to, just make sure to let it dry good before applying
FF Black costs more if you buy the bulk sizes.
Used it on my legacy gt
Hey man from your experience with fluid film once it starts to warm up like it is now and the fluid film is on your car pretty good with some dirt in it as well. Does the salt rinse off ? Or does it attach to the fluid film like the dirt and grime ? Starting to wash my undercarriage but the film is on there really good lol
It can attach some to the dirt, it’s not a problem though becuase it’s not in contact with the metal. I just wait till alll the salt is off the roads then wash the underside really well.
Why are you putting it on your car paint?
Just so it is easier to see what it does. On the underside it’s hard to see it.
It was a demonstration
this is why i wont put my car through a car wash with brushes.i dont want greasy fluid firm slapping my paint finish
Good stuff
If they could make a clear version
Normal is pretty clear when it’s not super thick. I guess that is until it gets dirt caked on it. Clear would eventually get really dirty too
Doesn't the salt and dirt just stick to the fluid film? If the fluid film won't wash off, arent those contaminants just building up on there? Next time it seems like you would be applying it over that crap again. Just curious about your thoughts?
Yea it will, but it holds it there so it’s not on the metal.
Be careful not to spray this stuff on your brakes :)
Now I need a video on how to easily remove fluid film applied out of a 5 gallon bucket by the fluid film applicator. Stuff is thick and nothing takes it off and I need it all off lol...
The only reason you'd need it all off is for rust repair.
If you need it all off, your car is pretty much doomed anyway so might as well keep it on.
If you aren't doing rust repair, keep it on.
