Fluid Film is a unique product for rust protection. Unlike many oil-based products on the market, there are no solvents in the product. When there are no solvents, there are almost no VOCs to evaporate. With very low VOCs, everything that you apply stays on the surface to protect it from rust. Not only is this method more environmentally friendly, but it allows the product to go further per ounce than solvent-based products.

Fluid Film rust preventer can be applied to just about any indoor surface. Since it is a non-drying product, it will leave a thin wet film.

Liquid A is a thinner version of Fluid Film that is better for spraying.

Freight is $130.00 for this drum within the 48 states.

Made in the USA.

Q. What makes Fluid Film different from its competitors?

A. Where most products contain between seventy and ninety percent solvent, Fluid Film contains none except for its propellant, meaning long lasting lubrication and protection. With no solvent, Fluid Film won't evaporate or become sticky or gummy, allowing it to migrate to other areas for lubrication or protection. With its unique lanolin base, Fluid Film will actually embed itself in the pores of metal, resisting wash off and keeping moisture and oxygen from getting to the base metal. Containing no solvent content, Fluid Film lends itself to numerous applications where the comparative solvent-based products would not even be considered

Q. What effect does Fluid Film have on the environment?

A. Fluid Film is classified as a non-toxic and non-hazardous liquid and contains less than one percent VOC content. Lower VOC content helps eliminate the use of ozone-depleting chemicals in the atmosphere. Fluid Film contains no solvents, phenols, heavy metals, arsenic, pcb's, pc's, tcdd's or other dioxin related substances. It is manufactured using an all natural lanolin base.

Q. Will Fluid Film harm paint?

A. Not at all. Fluid Film can be applied directly to paint without harming it.

Q. Will Fluid Film harm rubber or plastic?

A. It has no adverse effect on plastic or synthetic rubber, but it may cause some swelling on natural rubber.

Q. Can I paint over Fluid Film?

A. Because Fluid Film leaves a wet, non-drying film and embeds itself in the pores of the metal, any surface treated with Fluid Film should be wiped down with a good biodegradable cleaner before painting.

Q. Is Fluid Film an effective rust remover?

A. No, Fluid Film is not formulated to remove rust. However, if applied over existing rust, it will stop it immediately from spreading further. Fluid Film will penetrate rust and rust scale to the base metal, loosening and easing in the removal process

Q. Will Fluid Film prevent existing rust from spreading?

A. Yes, Fluid Film will stop it immediately from spreading further.

Q. Can I apply Fluid Film on my battery terminals to prevent corrosion?

A. Yes, it's an excellent way to prevent corrosion on battery terminals. Fluid Film is non-conductive, so you'll need to make your battery connections PRIOR to applying. The non-drying nature will provide long term protection.

Q. Will dirt build up on the surface after applying Fluid Film?

A. Because it remains wet, you'll see an initial light dusting, but because it doesn't have any solvents it won't become sticky and gum up or create a build-up of dirt.

Q. Is Fluid Film biodegradable?

A. No, it is not.

Q. Will Fluid Film harm electrical connections?

A. No. It is non-conductive, so be sure to establish all connections prior to application.

Q. Will it keep locks from freezing during the winter?

A. Yes, a light application is all that's needed to provide long term lubrication for lock assemblies, even in freezing temperatures.

Q. Will Fluid Film dry out over time?

A. No, it will not dry out. Fluid Film is a lanolin based product containing no solvents. It will not evaporate or dry out. It will leave a wet, non-drying film, that will provide long term corrosion protection on all metals and superior lubrication for all moving parts

Q. Does Fluid Film work on all types of metals?

A. Fluid Film will protect all metals from oxidation and atmospheric corrosion, including steel, stainless steel, copper, lead, tin and zinc. It will stop chrome and brass from pitting and aluminum and magnesium from oxidizing.

Q. My stainless steel has pitted areas that are corroding and cannot be passivated. Will Fluid Film help prevent additional corrosion?

A. Yes, it will protect those pitted areas that from corroding.

Q. Can I use Liquid A outdoors?
