  • In this video, I will show you how I prevent rust on my Toro Greensmaster 1000 reel mower. I will apply fluid film to the reel as it contains no solvents and WILL NOT kill your grass. Also, we will apply a layer of spray wax over the mower to help protect it through the winter months.

    • @PrincessCutLawnCare
      @PrincessCutLawnCare  3 роки тому +1

      Me either! I’ve been down the rabbit hole of rust proofing lately and through me research wd40 contains petroleum which will kill grass. You can also use Teflon and silicone to lube your reels but they are more expensive alternatives. Thanks for watching Ben!

    I just bought some fluid film to lube the chains on my C27. So it can also be used to wipe down all the red painted areas, as well as the engine? I was worried it may attract a bunch of dirt and gunk it all up…

    • @PrincessCutLawnCare
      @PrincessCutLawnCare  3 роки тому

      No problem Morten, yes wd40 contains solvents that will harm your grass when the bedknife and reel contact it, some other options to lube it are cooking spray and silicone spray but I find fluid film works the best, thanks for watching 😊
