      I Honda Civic. I'm taking it for protection with Krown, because I'm not sure if the wax really covers all the points and I don't want to repeat it again, so that it doesn't get too thick. What bothers me about Krown is that dust and dirt stick up, and where I drive the car for protection, they don't wash and dry the chassis before applying the protection again.

    I'm using Cosmoline on my cars in Minnesota. It's the brand that both Porsche and the US government uses. It is also a wax product that dries after application and won't come off without a solvent. It comes in either amber or black. I like the black to see where it has covered. Lasts for years.

      Fluid film and PB Blaster are better. This stuff locks in moisture. If you have a weak point in this coating it cracks and moisturizer gets behind it it will be worse and rust even faster. You'd have to remove the coating with a special solvent and re-do it all over. Fluid film and PB blaster must be checked once a year and touched up but that's it you're done. If you plan on running through car washes go with PB Blaster it's more resistant to pressurized water than fluid film.

    Just moved to Connecticut from Louisiana with a 3rd gen 4runner I've gotta undercoat as well, but I've never heard of this Amsoil product. Gotta see some real-world results before I start using. My plan is to use Surface Shield, after much research, but excited to learn of another product that might offer multiple-year protection, rather than the older stand-by oil coatings that only offer one season of protection from the nasty salts and chemicals they dump on the roads up here. Look forward to an update in a year! Thanks...

    • @Bloodbain88
      @Bloodbain88 9 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Surface shield is a good product. But Fluid Film works very good too. I have several trucks coated in FF and after several years of touch-ups, the coating is so thick nothing gets through it. The thing i like most about FF specifically is that is stays really wet, so it keeps things lubricated, like door and hood hinges, windows, tailgates, suspension parts, and even nuts and bolts are easier to remove because they aren't rusted and basically pre-lubed.

    • @Bloodbain88
      @Bloodbain88 9 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      But you can't go wrong with either one. I've also used NHOU (New Hampshire Oil Undercoating) and it creeps into nooks and crannies like no other product on the market, and smells good too. The downside is that it's not nearly as resistant to wash-off like FF or PB surface shield.

  • @Dwigt_Rortugal
    @Dwigt_Rortugal 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Another place I spray is inside the doors, since water can get stuck if the drains inevitably get plugged. If you're doing the speakers or a window regulator, it's a convenient time to get those. Or I guess you could use the long straw nozzle.

    • @johnkuykendall467

  • @boosted2.4_sky
    @boosted2.4_sky 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    1:12.. You actually have to let that dry completely... blowing off the surface moisture isn't dry. When you put that on, (Cosmoline essentially) you're going to trap moisture. Which is a worse situation... you're actually supposed to let the car sit at least 24 hours but 48 is better to ensure that it is completely dry.....

    Alex, I tried some of the HD Metal Protector with my last Amsoil order. (through your storefront!) I sprayed it liberally over my truck's control arms, wheel wells, etc. It just seems to go on so thin. Have you used the stuff long-term? I also tried Fluid Film, but the cans make a huge mess and the spray nozzle is focused rather than misting. Before that I was using Blaster Surface Shield, which makes much less of a mess. Those latter two go on pretty thick, while the HD MP seems much less obvious. I'm thinking of getting a pneumatic sprayer for future use of the usual products.

    Without drilling the doors, you have not protected the hem joints at the bottom of each door. You should be spraying product in there and allowing it to slide down to the bottom and fill up. Also, any product that drys and becomes “hard” like a tar or a wax is not a good material for wintertime undercoating. You want the surface protectant to stay moist and pliable so that it doesn’t create a crust. Reason being is that any kind of crusty coating can eventually pull away from the metal and actually cause accelerated corrosion by trapping moisture and not allowing it to dry out. There is a corrosion inhibitor report the government of Canada released and they found that products offered by companies such as Krown and RustCheck are superior for that very reason. For example, say you spray this Amsoil product into a crevice. It will creep into that area and fill it up, and then harden. The first issue is that you’ve now blocked this area from future applications. Secondly, you have not prepped the surface so it’s not actually adhering to the metal, it’s just floating on the dirt and previous coatings that were on that metallic surface. You need apply something thin that doesn’t entirely solidify if you want protection through temperature cycling, weather conditions, mechanical movement etc. waxy metallic protectors are use primarily in the manufacturing industry to protect raw metal after it has been machined where you are applying the product to a perfectly prepped substrate. They are also designed to be removed later with a special solvent for subsequent processing. Companies make products like Tektyl which is very similar to the Amsoil MP for this reason. Also, since the metal protectant is oil based, you don’t want to spray it on anything polymer based such as door gaskets, plastic components, bushings, window trim, etc. it will break down these components over time and turn them to rock.

      This MPHD stays soft enough that it doesn't trap salt & moisture. I'm in Canada and use it all the time and have been for 10 years. It may be oil based, but there isn't enough oil in it to hurt rubber or plastic.
      My experience with Amsoil and undercoating in general outweighs all that 'book learn'n' you've done.
