I am wondering if anyone has experience with using "Fluid Film" on their race vehicle. See link: http://www.fluidfilm.com.au/index.htm. The blurb says it protects against salt.
I picked up a compound table for my CNC project at Hare & Forbes and they had it for sale on their counter. The guy said they use it to protect all their machinery in the shop.
I picked up a can (~$20) to protect my stuff but I am wondering if it is also worth plastering the bike with it or trying an experiment first?
Fluid Film - any experience?

G'day Paul,
We've used lanolin (not that brand) for years to protect agricultural machinery from both rust and corrosion when not in use. We use the spray cans for convenience and the viscocity is probably between their NAS and AR products. Ours goes on clear and seems to stay that way until enough dust lands to discolour it.
The fertiliser spreaders are in as bad, if not a worse environment than the salt and they stand up well with it. It's also environmentally friendly
Which viscocity did you go for?
Cheers,
Rob
