This product is acidic. Even though the web site says safe for paint I wouldn't. Try wax.

I was thinking about the underside and under hood, heard this stuff is good on aluminum. Also says its good to 300 deg F gonna spray that unpainted block, all aluminum cases and engine parts. Already removed and painted drive shafts, gonna try to stay on top of this to keep it good.

IMO

I had a boat and at jet ski at one point in time both bought new, both dealers sold and swore by the T-9 Product! So I used on both Sprayed Everything metal in the engine areas, hose clamps, painted engine parts, etc. I never saw any kind of Rust, you would see the normal oxidation of typical marine enviroments after a season, Ie white discoloration of metal, greenish discoloration of metal the starting points of corrosion. Imo not worth the money! This stuff was like 11$ a can and when I ran out I used Wd 40 religiousley and still had the same effects! I think a tooth brush and soap n water is cheaper and worked just as good! but to each their own!

Best of luck!

I have used Boeshield for twenty years. It was made by the Boeing Corporation and is not acidic! We use it on Boeing and other aircraft and helicopters on raw aluminum and is far better than WD40. If it's good enough for a Boeing 747, then it's good enough for my F250!

You guys should check this stuff out:

Fluid Film® | Corrosion Preventative, Lubricant and Rust Inhibitor

Available at any John Deere dealer for $8.00/can. I used it last winter to undercoat my cars and it did a fabulous job...no rust advancement even on my rusty, 10-year-old Contour! Really great stuff; it isn't permanent but lasts a good long while.
