Hey all...I recently moved to Northeastern Ohio from Southeastern Pennsylvania and am astounded at the excessive use of road salt here. Back home in PA, we wouldn't have used half as much salt. Here they started salting the roads a week before a single flake dropped.
No wonder everybody's trucks look like brown Swiss cheese.
To further compound my irritation...I bought a 'new to me' truck. It's in good shape and I want it to stay that way so I decided to rustproof/undercoat it as well as I could afford to.
I read some really positive things about this Fluid Film stuff. A local fellow sprays cars with it for a very reasonable price, so I gave him a shot. He sprayed inside the doors, rockers, tailgate, behind the tail lights/headlights, etc. Did a fine job, only neglected to tell me that the stuff stinks worse than a truck stop parking lot full of dead sheep. It has faded substantially, but I can still smell it almost three weeks later. Not to mention, I could have easily done it myself in better weather.
So unless this stuff turns out to be magical, I'm not using any more. I am rather disappointed at turning my truck into a 4x4 sheep carcass. Looking for similar products that don't smell as such. Would like to be able to purchase gallon(s) to spray myself. Cost is not an issue. Availability and effectiveness are my concerns.
One product I have found is this: https://www.sprayon.com/product-categori...t-aerosol-lu777
Any experience with the LU777 and what other recommendations can you make?
