Got the truck sprayed yesterday.

Internet gossip suggests that Rust Check is not as good as Krown.

Thanks again.


How far are you from the Canadian border?

I'm about an hour and half drive from (west) of Windsor, which has a Krown. But, I waited too long to apply for a passport or card, which I think is a minimum of $60, and possibly more.

At the time, I didn't think that the exchange rate was enough either to make up the difference. I forget if there is a charge to cross the bridge/tunnel either.

Is this company just not allowed to operate in the lower 48, or do they choose to not do business here??

That's not bad. I'd go for it next year

I'm not sure.

There's certainly plenty of demand for this in our rustbelt.

^ Agreed. Next fall, I'm taking a trip to Canada to get the Jeep Krowned. WD-40 applied after every washing seems to work reasonably well, but it's a PITA, and not as effective as the real stuff. Fortunately, I'm not battling much rust as of now (gotta get some fixed on the hood lip and one door over the summer, none of it is major).
