I am going to spray mainly the underside metal--rest of truck is aluminumI use 3M rust fighter for internal areas like suggested in 3Ms description. http://3mcollision.com/3m-rust-fighter-i-08892.html I usually use it on the bottom insides of doors and other places where you want it to seep in between lapped seams. I used this on my wife's '14 CRV before winter 2 years ago... the last I looked it was still holding up well.
A friend of mine just did his '16 F250 with a 50/50 mix of boiled linseed oil and Marvel Mystery oil. Applied it with a garden pump sprayer. We don't know how it will hold up to the winter salt, but suspect it will do fine. It looks really nice but it's only been on a month or so now.
For now, I'm planning to use the 3M Rust fighter on my new '16 Silverado as well. The Chevy's appear to use some sort of rubbery coating that tends to split and peel off the frame after a few years, so it will be interesting to see if the 3M coating helps to preserve the coating as well.
Looks like our Lowes store sells it in spray cans.
I jacked my truck up one side at a time and used the 2 spray cans on the underside--went pretty good--time will tell--not the most pleasant smelling stuff---only a smell mid-life could love!I am going to try to slow down the rust on the other non aluminum parts underneath--anyone ever use "fluid film"--can I spray it with a old paint gun?--thanks.
It only took 2 spray cans. i take it that you sprayed all of the frame. did you try it on the engine bay? I will have to go to lowes and get me 3 cans this weekend.I jacked my truck up one side at a time and used the 2 spray cans on the underside--went pretty good--time will tell--not the most pleasant smelling stuff---only a smell mid-life could love!
