Craig i use this stuff religiously my 04 Tundra came from rust belt and I've been applying this right out of the rattle can for 4 years. I just started using the black this year its definitely extended the life of my rusty truck. That gun is the answer ✔️💯👍🏾
I got that spray gun on Amazon for about $15 and it works great. Just a piece of hose into the can and you're all set. I like fluid film because it isn't too messy and it keeps the rust away!
Fluid film works well even when rust has begun to show. It coats existing rust and penetrates deep into cracks to drive out moisture. It is also a product that can be used to prevent corrosion on hinges, battery terminals, machinery, tools and other metal around the home. Spray cans are available too. Thanks for watching Robert!
Nicely done Craig! I get the ‘professionals’ to do my truck but I remember my grandfather doing his truck with transmission fluid when I was a kid. Good to know a good product to use. Thanks Brother!
Transmission fluid is a well-known undercoating. Your grandfather was smart to protect his truck. In the West, rust proofing facilities are few and far between compared to the abundance of them in the east. I remember that they were on almost every block in Nova Scotia where the heavily- salted winter roads contribute to prematurely rusted cars. They use salt out here too but because of the mild coastal climate, it's on the roads less. In the Prairies and the north, they use considerably more sand on winter roads, (mixed with salt) that reduces the overall effect of cars rusting out.
Good morning Craig, I got untied 😁👍 I have fluid film in a spray can, and it is great stuff. I did not know it came in black. I never considered it as undercoating. Thanks for sharing 👍 Have a great week, Ben 👋😎👍🍻
Fluid Film is a great rust preventative. Undercoating cars with it is gaining traction because of its superior rust-preventative properties. It creeps into every crack to drive out water and coat steel with a protective film. It needs to be reapplied periodically but can easily be made a part of yearly maintenance. I have been using it for several years and it works!
I've used motor oil, and old transmission fluid and now use fluid film. They are all good at keeping an old vehicle on the road - especially in the rust-belt areas!
How's she goin'? This looks like it covers pretty darn good. I wonder what's it like when it comes time to work on the vehicle. Is it sticky and gets over everything? I use Fluid Film lubes a lot so I bet this product is a good one!! Take 'er easy!!
It's not that sticky. Not like grease or oil. It creeps into tiny areas to get the water out. After a few months, the excess washes off leaving the protected parts good for about a year. Down inside the doors and inside the frames it lingers for years. I have previously applied used engine oil and transmission fluid with similar results but they can have a lasting odor-and get on you and stay when you work underneath, Fluid film has an "organic" (sheep) odor for about a week and then it is almost odor-free.
The 1-gallon and 5-gallon jugs come in either amber or black. I've used both but the black looks better initially. It does wash off over time, leaving all the cracks and joints covered, so it won't stay all black. But as an initial impression, black looks really fresh!

I used Fluid Film for years, the best out there👍
See ya Craig✌
Hi Marc, Yes it's really good stuff but getting pricey! I have some on hand from a few years ago and I'm glad I bought it then.
@@EverydayProjects However when yoou do it yourself and do "proper coverage" you can go years between applications 👍
@@OpenAirOutdoors That's right. I put it on heavy! Even so, it takes less than a gallon to do a full size vehicle. Pretty good deal
I always wondered if that stuff did any good. Probably better on new equipment.

Stuff works but so does Pam or any, no stick pan or barbacue spray
Good Tip, Thanks! I'll try that too.
I am tied up but I am coming back to this video. Very timely, awesome 👍
I hope they UNTIE you BEN!
Nice job Craig, I have a friend that actually uses used motor oil under his equipment. 🤣🤣
Hehehehe that's a secret potion now I'll have to SILENCE YOU! MR Overalls 😅
LoL, well come on down here big boy, I’ll have you wearing overalls back to Cheesypeake. 🤣🤣👍🏼
I've used motor oil, and old transmission fluid and now use fluid film. They are all good at keeping an old vehicle on the road - especially in the rust-belt areas!
@EverydayProjects I've had to get a couple areas welded also that's how bad it is😱
@@bigsonslawncare Toyotas were known to rust out but the engines will last forever! This stuff will help keep that old truck on the road!
very informative and great job
Thanks!🙂
I have not come across Fluid Film before but it does seem like a good product. Great tips on using it, thanks
It's good stuff but getting expensive! Old transmission fluid will work wonders too as undercoating.
Hi Craig, great job done it covered really good and should protect under the car for a while,👍
Thanks 👍 Nev! This stuff works well and is just a little work to apply. It has kept several old vehicles rust-free so far.
👏👏👏
Thanks for a fantastic product! I produced another video on Fluid Film. Here's that one:

@@EverydayProjects I know the smell of the Fluid Film is not that pleasant, but then again neither is hydraulic oil!! LOL
Fluid film is grest stuff. I didn't know it came in black.

Quite pricey but looks good, maybe when i get your money ill get 5 gallons😅
Not too bad when you consider there is enough in a 5 gallon pail to do your vehicle 5 times.
In the meanwhile, I am willing to mail you an envelope full of Fluid Film. Go wait by the mailbox.
