So does Krown. They have or at least used to have T-32 and T-40 formulas. T-32 was thinner than T-40 and was used for spraying inside panels.
In fact Krown and Rustcheck was in the past the same company. They split for whatever reason, but looking at their spraying methods and the products, they still have a lot in common.
Krown is getting big in Canada and I think that will be their downfall as they will dilute the formula and castrate the application process to maximize profits. I haven't done a Krown application in about two years. The last time I did it, I noticed that they were quite sloppy in the application, were trying to rush and put down the product much thinner then normally. This is the same outfit I used since I bought my Mazda brand new and they were definitely better in the past. I had to point out few missed locations and they reluctantly sprayed the areas, but I will not be going back to that location again.
I'm reading that this type of service is starting to be common amongst other Krown outfits.
I'm doing my own thing now because I have the means to do so. I would still recommend Krown, just like many others on this board, but it cannot be stressed enough, especially for guys coming over from States to Canada just to get their car sprayed by Krown, to do your research about the outfit that will be doing the work. Maybe get some feedback from members here. I know we tend to fixate our attention to the product, but the application is also very important. Whether it's Krown, Rust Check, FF or something else, IMO it's not that critical, as long as it's some type of oily, nondrying and creeping type product, but the application is. Watch the application process and don't be shy to point out mistakes. If the place does not allow you to watch the process, find another one.
