Use pressed fish oil. If it drips off while your trapping it might increase your catch. You rock. It's about the same price as premium diesel oil.

Wonder if fluid film ok on axles. Rear end differential cover ?or how close to brake drums., Not sure if axle to hot, I use it on all my trucks.....it has sheep lanolin in it....and it’s fine on rubber bushings.....I spray EVERYTHING UNDER THE TRUCK WITH IT. And make sure to lower your spare tire....and spray up in that area too. Pull all the rubber/ plastic plugs out of the inner rocker panels and fill it up with fluid film. Squirt it in the bottom of the doors....inside that little hole on the inside edge. Pull the tail lights out and spray in there. But at this point...it’s like closing the gate ..after the cows got out. The best way to beat rust ...is to do this dance with fluid film ,when the vehicle is 1,2 or 3 years old....but better late than NEVAH

Wonder if over spray on brake hoses an rubber suspension bushings or rubber by park brake cable connections well cause swelling. I spray end brake hose on metal where connect to rubber as rust kinda bad. Say can cause swelling non oil resistant rubber I have sprayed fluid film on my 2015 GMC Z71 2500 ..since I bought it new in July 2014... every October ....and there is no harm done to my rubber cab mounts..shock rubber bushing, brake hoses, heck ...I use fluid film as tire shine ! Don’t forget to lube your hood latch too. Lube those tranny and brake lines . Spray up and over the rear wheel wells...

Did my truck a month ago, the fluid film really does keep the rust off, guess the same company has a product now called wool wax and it's a bit thicker and you can get it in black.

3 cans fluid film did about 75 per cent frame an under carriage. Up into edge lower body an floor of body underside on seams where rust, along with paint brush to spread out after spray. Also shoot it in holes drill already into frame inside.. A sprayer on a hoist where can walk underneath would be best with a gallon of fluid film, spray heavy then, hard get lay underneath it with Flashlite in spots like on top frame in placez. Rust really eats away above spare tire donut, an start on edges good where upper kingpins or ball joints are at in that metsl there into , $30 on fluid film, o wouldn't use used old 5-30 oil I save as u reslly hate dirty runny mess, the fluid film is made for it an stays, like apply an don't really drip off. It creeps into metal, got lots other work done over weekend so far, before trapping season hits, unknown how much go to do it at first, I not plan to put as many miles on , probly wont have time anyhow, if coon are really going to be average $3-$4 finish, I would curtail coon trapping
