eureka fluid film

[leonz]

Good morning fellow board members,


Slightly off topic but good information I believe everyone can use and currently only available for purchase at the "green dealer" in aerosol cans or gallon pails etc.

After hearing good reviews about fluid film I finally purchased two aerosol cans, 19.00 USD including NYS sales tax.

Well it works!, I did not have to pull the pins on my dads lawn mower to expose them. It had been hanging up and not providing a level cut-ruled out the soft tire issue first etc.

The "eureka fluid film" is also bio degradeable as I understand it as well

I am looking forward to using it on the snow blowers "toro snow pups- one nearly new with the power curve paddle and a 20 year old with the flat paddle.

I always used WD-40 to act as a snow booster-non sticking aid- in the "Toro Snow Pups" and I am sure the fluid film will work well from all reports that I have read on www.plowsite.com

Question

Do any of you use an external hydraulic power supply to power a hydraulic drive
snow blower on the smaller Kubotas or would it be overkill? What do you think?

Thanks,


leonz

Fluid Film is GREAT stuff. We used to use it by the gallon as undercoating on highway equipment. Its a great lube for cables, chute rotation and linkages like on snowblowers and lawnmowers. Its expensive but well worth it.

I love the stuff.

I am surprised they don't advertise here.

It is a wool wax based product.

Fluid Film? | Corrosion Preventative, Lubricant and Rust Inhibitor

It was developed for John Deere for when they shipped machines overseas to protect from rust in the salty environment.

You can get at most any JD dealer, online @ Ebay or McMaster Carr and many other places.

Once it is tried you will virtually never use WD-40 again.

ps Online I can get it for about 60% of the price previously mentioned.

pps If interested I may be able to hook you up with a free sample

We are at constant war with corrosion, fertilizing being our primary business. Fluid film is amazing, stops corrosion and lubes like nothing you have ever used! I gave away all the wd 40 & liquid wrench i had in stock after using fluid film.

It mentions thinning - presumably for spraying. What do you thin it with?

I always sprayed it straight.Most shutz guns can handle it. I suppose you could thin it with Xylene or another petroleum based solvent without problem. I wouldnt want to thin it too much, when it goes on its almost "jelly like", really thick, thats where the protection comes from. If its thinned out too much you wont have the same film thickness.
