How does Fluid Film® work? 

             

Fluid Film® protects all known metals by creating a non-drying barrier that seals out moisture and air.  

With the Fluid Film® barrier, existing rust will be stopped on contact, and new rust and corrosion cannot develop.

Fluid Film® penetrates to the base metal, remaining active and migrating to inaccessible areas.  

Fluid Film® provides long-term protection from the corrosive effects of salts, calcium chloride, moisture and fertilizers.

 

Does it not dry? Won’t it wash off? 

 

Fluid Film® embeds itself in the pores of the metal and does not wash off easily.

Fluid Film® undercoating is a thick and durable formula.  

It is about the viscosity of a latex paint.

Fluid Film® is an annual application.  

Get Fluid Film® applied to your vehicle, and you will be protected against corrosion for 8 – 12 months in most winter environments.

 

If it stays wet, won’t dirt stick to the bottom of the car?   

                                 

Because Fluid Film® remains wet, it will get an initial dusting upon application, but because it contains no solvents and will not become sticky, it will not gum up or create a build-up of dirt.

 

What’s the big deal about “solvent-free”?  

                                                  

Fluid Film® products are solvent-free and consist of an all-natural lanolin base.

Without solvents, Fluid Film® will not dry out or evaporate.  

When applied inside an enclosed environment, such as inside vehicle doors, inside frame tubes, etc., Fluid Film® will continue to protect for an indefinite time (years).  

For example, consider the product WD##, which, according to its technical data, is over 50% mineral spirits.  

What happens with mineral spirits, alcohol, and similar chemicals when you spill them?  

They evaporate.  

These products work well.  

They penetrate, do their job, loosen the bolt, or eliminate the squeak, and evaporate very quickly.

Fluid Film®, on the other hand, does not contain solvents. It penetrates the area and does not dry out or evaporate.

Fluid Film® will continue to provide an indefinite period of protection and lubrication in that same area.

 

Will it drip on my driveway and the garage floor if it stays wet?

 

No. Fluid Film® is a non-drip, non-tacky, self-healing formula.

 

Why should I have my car undercoated yearly with Fluid Film® instead of a traditional hard-shell undercoating?   

                                          

Hard undercoating is generally 3-4 times the cost of a Fluid Film® application.

The downside to hard undercoating is that, over time, these tend to chip and crack.

The protection is lost as moisture and road salt enter these openings and get trapped between the hard shell and the vehicle's undercarriage.

Corrosion will thrive in this environment, and you cannot see it until it is too late because it is hidden under the cracked hard shell. 

Fluid Film® is a cleaner, less expensive, and more effective alternative.

 

Can I still wash my car without washing off the Fluid Film®? 

                           

Yes, Fluid Film® does not wash off easily.

Just avoid the high-pressure wash on the undercarriage of the vehicle.

A low-pressure rinse is OK.
