My fluid film is coming tomorrow so I washed the undercarriage to prep it for tomorrow. I’m going to spray on the fluid film....I’ve heard good things

Nice ride Enjoy I used fluid film for about five years and switched over to NHOU with the recommendations of my fluid film applicator guy As fluid film got more popular it seemed to be getting thinner than it used to be He switched over to NHOU which is the same type of oil Undercoating but it’s a little thicker and clings much better I will say that they both work but the NHOU seems to stay on better I’ve been using both brands now for over 10 years and none of my vehicles have any rust but you have to do a respray every year It’s better if you can do it in the warmer weather because it migrates better I usually do mine every September My oil Undercoating guy has a bay at his shop dedicated to Undercoating It’s important to get inside all the nooks and crannies like inside the frame rails and so on He does inside the doors and tailgate and hood It’s only as good as the application You get a much better job on a lift Then just clean good underneath and touch up every year He charges $225 for the first one and $100 for a touch up every year I would do it myself if I had a lift but not much savings after you buy the material The fluid film does stink for a few weeks after coating The NHOU definitely smells better Fluid film smells like a barnyard Good luck with the new Jeep Mine has been great

I’ve only got 50 miles on it. I never really drove in the salt. I power washed the undercarriage as much as I could so I’m hoping I got whatever little salt that was on there

Nice ride I used fluid film for about 5 years and always had good luck but as it got more popular my Undercoating guy noticed it was getting thinner He switched to NHOU about 5 years ago and started spraying all vehicles with it Same type of stuff but it seems to cling much better and last longer After using both I can say it definitely does It is only as good as the application though He gets in all the nooks and crannies and inside the doors and tailgate and all under the hood It’s best if you can do it in warm weather because it migrates better You have to touch it up once a year though It gets a little washed off in some areas underneath It’s best if you can do it on a lift My applcator guy has a bay and a lift in his shop just for oil Undercoating He does hundreds of cars and trucks a year You will get quite a bit of odor from the fluid film for about 2-3 weeks Smells like a barnyard The NHOU has way less odor After using both I prefer the NHOU It just seems to last longer and cling better I would do it myself but I don’t have a lift and that’s key to a good job and he gets $225 for a first spray and$100 for my yearly touch up so not much saving after I buy the material He gets it by the 55 gallon drum and has it hooked up to an air system with hose reels and spray guns Slick system Just make sure clean underneath and touch up once a year and you’ll never have rust My 2011 f150 has been through 8 winters and it’s like new underneath Good luck with the new Jeep

Your StormTrooper looks GOOD! Before my 2018 JLUR was totaled last month by some jerk on his phone, I had the white but with the black flares and a black top.

I've ordered a new 2019 JLUR but this time with the sky one touch so my top will be white on the sides. Like the look of yours. I kept my flares black.

Looks great Rubicon2019
