Bought some Fluid Film so I can do some rust prevention. Want to do inside the doors, rockers and anything else I can get to.

Can anyone suggest the best access points and/or trouble spots I should be sure to hit? I have aerosol cans so I can shoot a couple feet, stuff will creep along after that. I will probably pick up a tub too to for brushing on.

Do you have the little extension hose with the nozzle on the end that you can attach to the top of the can? That thing is really useful for getting inside body panels and frame rails.

I don't but was definitely thinking about it. Loew's is selling the spray cans. Thought I could rig something on my own possibly but if it's cheap enough I'll just buy it. I've used some of jell here and there in the engine compartment and it works well.

I know there is some access around the rear shock mounts. Bolts were rusted up there like most everyone else. Will spray that section down good and let the creeping begin.

Have not gotten underneath w/ an eye towards accessing the rockers or frame rails so not sure what the best way into some of these spaces is.

Get that extension hose, it works great. It's got three little holes on the end where the stuff sprays out in all directions, and the hose itself is about 2 ft. long. Just find some small holes in the rocker and frame rails, stick it in, push the button, and pull it out while it sprays all up inside there. Yeah, that sounds dirty.

After you mentioned it I checked out a youtube video of the hose and yeah that'll work! Yes it does sound dirty, good thing the stuff is non-toxic and safe for all plastic and rubber parts.

And inside the doors.

Easiest to just pop the door panel or shoot through latch or something?

*Edit; Can I or should I spray into the cowling through the cowl grills? Is that the best access point?
