Fluid film doesnt dry or crack off, it also serves as a lubricant. First time i used it, was wondering why it smelled kinda milky or dairyish. Then i see it has natural lanolin in it.

I could see using it on your plow truck but why in the world would you put that on your truck?

I didn't see any beer, just a can of water

Vile,
I can deal with you trucks being nicer than mine, but to insult my favorite beer, that hurts, lol.
I actually went back to look for the "water bottle".
If the german imports were more affordable, that would be my preference. But since they're a bit pricey I stick with a good ol bud light myself.

If I have to drink a light beer I'll at least go with a silver bullet. My winter beer of choice is Grolsch but it has to be a swing top.  8)

To prevent rust and corrosion? Do you use anything as a protective barrier? Even keeping the salt off, water still oxidizes.

Chassis Saver does not need to be top coated. Also do you really want to cake up your freshly cleaned chassis with goop and crud? Keep it clean and it will stay nice forever.

Good point, since i scraped off nearly an inch of goop and grime before putting on the chassy saver. I finally have a nice clean frame. Want to keeo it that way.

But what about a little fluid film on leaf springs, axle and other non frame surfaces that i didnt chassy coat?

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

All of mine always had a layer of primer and paint matching the body color.
