Woolwax is more greasy. I've also used both. FF better inside doors and panels where you want it to creep more. Personally I don't like black oil like NHU. I prefer amber product that lets me see what's going on.
Nice detail in your video, thank you for posting your experience. I use Woolwax myself and it's the best I've found for clinging well and being resistant to washoff. And as a bonus, it doesn't stink like Fluid Film. The one thing I would say is not to wait for rust before using, but to use as a rust preventative. Not excessively, but also not sparingly as the relative cost of adding a thin yearly layer, is low and builds the protection, thus helps to prevent future rust. This was posted 2 years ago, curious if you'd be interested in posting another video showing the longevity and an update over time showing 3 years.
I’ve started cycling these 2 products yearly. Using wool wax every year created a massive barrier that just collects a 1/4” of dirt. I also have a truck so I’m not nearly as close to the ground so the washing off isn’t as bad
Fluid Film once a year. Forget about i for a yeart. 1 year maintenance. Works great on a 2005 Rubicon that is used for offroading only in the pacific north west salt and snow heaven (toy).
Im about to do my first coat of woolwax on my car in 2 weeks. Im also planning on running my car through the car wash from December through March to knock off the salt here in upstate New York. From your experience, will car washing remove the woolwax?
Those car washes typically recycle the water. So you may be spraying your undercarriage with salt water. Most people advise NOT to spray underneath your car once you’ve used fluid film/woolwax.
Great video! So from year to year, when applying a new coat do you wash it off? Or do you just go over with a new coat? I just applied fluid film to my new truck. I will definitely be taking your advice and doing this in the warmer weather to let it cure. Keep up with the great content my friend.
Thank you for the wonderful encouragement! So the only time I reapply undercoating is when there is rust beginning to form, reapplying it over old undercoating That's still doing its job is a waste of time and also creates and unnecessarily thick coating, you want your undercoating to be able to get washed at, if you need to reapply undercutting out would definitely suggest rinsing everything off as well as possible and then waiting a couple days for to dry, this way you will see where you need to reapply undercutting and where you do not need to reapply, it does not help anything in fact it worsens your undercarriage to have a undercoating that is so thick. I know this because I undercoat people's vehicles every year, some people under coat their vehicle every single year regardless of whether it needs it or not, the result is an extremely thick and dirty oily barrier that is doing nothing for the vehicle, what I find is the barrier is so thick that it begins to rust underneath that thick barrier, you actually want it to be somewhat thin but tacky enough to not come off. This is why you only reapply when needed and only in the spots needed. I apologize this is a very long answer but I just poured out every bit of knowledge I have obtained on this subject to you, good luck and thank you again!

Needle scaler works great on heavy rust!

U can always add beeswax to fluid film warm it up and spray it until it gets cold. More wax u add harder that protective layer will be.
Thank you.
just has my pick up done in woolwax..👍
Thanks very informative 👍
