FLUID FILM RUSTPROOFING BLACK

Fluid Film Black Rust Proofing Protection – UK Stockist Rustbuster is pleased to be one of the UK’s first stockists of Fluid Film Black.  Fluid Film Black is a lanolin-based product that lets you treat the underside of your vehicle (or other metal structures) with a non-toxic, non-cracking, attractive black coating for long term protection. Extracted from sheep’s wool, lanolin is a natural, sustainable, non-toxic product with proven corrosion-busting benefits. The original Fluid Film was a pioneer of lanolin-based technology, developed in World War II to give long-term protection to the US Navy’s fleet. It has since proven itself in industrial, agricultural and automotive applications. Lanolin-based Fluid Film Black has several benefits: Moisture displacement. Lanolin displaces the water by attaching to metallic surfaces, forming a robust anti-corrosive barrier. Excellent penetration. The viscosity of Fluid Film ensures that its wet barrier creeps and migrates right into seams and other tight spaces.

Non-cracking for long-term coverage. A solvent-free formula that never fully dries, so won’t crack or split unlike bitumen-based underseals that contain solvents. Allows ongoing inspection. Despite the durability, lanolin-based products can be removed with white spirit to periodically inspect the metal surface for corrosion. Penetraton. Heavily corroded and/or frozen parts such as nuts, bolts, shafts, etc. can be salvaged by applying Fluid Film Black. Safe to use. Fluid Film Black is non-toxic, non-hazardous to users AND is safe on paint or plastics. (Just avoid coating any rubber parts that are not oil-resistant.) Surface preparation before application (aerosol and non-aerosol) For best results before applying Fluid Film Black, prepare the surface by cleaning/degreasing and power washing, wire brush any loose rust away, and treat remaining surface rust with Fe-123 Rust Converter. Application of Fluid Film Black (non-aerosol) Thoroughly shake and/or stir first to create a suitable viscosity for application. Ensuring the product is at or above room temperature will also lead to better results. Thinning isn’t normally necessary, but a small amount of vegetable oil can be added to achieve a thinner consistency. Apply with a spray gun for best results: Fluid Film Black is not suitable for application with a pump/hand/garden sprayer, even after thinning. These are Fluid Film’s recommended air pressures: With a compressor – 60-80 psi. With airless equipment – approximately 2,000 psi. Rustbuster supplies the following spray guns for use with a compressor: Schutz undercoating/injection gun – empty Schutz cans can be bought with this gun. Pro Wax undercoating/injection gun – this kit includes a metal cup to hold the wax during spraying. Coverage of approximately 5 square metres per litre can be expected.
