Hi guys

I'll ask the stupid question of the day here.
What are you guys accually putting the fluid film on ?
Inside tunnel walls?
Or all Suspension pieces

I can see it working

Since not all crazy carpets are created equal, for those that are interested in this idea, I found a thicker, stiffer, longer Yamaha blue version at our local ToysRus made by Gracious Living, model 3022 for just over 2 bucks Cdn.

I spray quite liberally under the back end of tunnel, and sides...right up to and around the exhaust. Works well.

I was having the icing issue as well, and I sprayed WD-40 all up in the rear of the tunnel, and it kept the tunnel from icing up! If that stops working though, I may have to try this.

I have used fluid film, it works well. Great product. I used it on a 2003 toyota tacoma i purchased new. The truck chasis is still great and they were famous for rust, even had a recall for it. I had the truck for 7 years and step father has had it ever since.

I've been spraying my under tunnel with graphite spray once a year and basically eliminated any ice build up.

You got it. Toys R Us carries them.
In my day they were called 'crazy carpets'.
