Its a wax based coating- so you have to be careful what cleaners / degreasers you use on it. -Steven
Mine is kind of dry to I think it has to do with the climate some/ conditions the truck is driven in. You can buy the coating in a rattle can if you would rather stick with it over paint.
That must be why I can get under coating to stick to it for more than 1 winter.
My truck does this for me! Except instead of engine oil, it is power steering fluid. Works GREAT!
I fixed the leak 20k ago, and I've pressure washed the thing a couple times, but the oil just won't come off at all. Best rust inhibitor ever!
But seriously, don't intentionally spray oil on your truck. It is bad for the environment (in theory), but mostly, it makes your truck look like a beater and collects dirt.
I used Pur 15 on my frame. I didnt do much for prep work. I have only had it on for 175 miles so we will see how it holds up
I am actually going to use fluid film. Supposed to be really good for that AND environmentally friendly! Using used engine oil is recycling right?!?!
I've also heard that POR 15 is great. I have to coat my frame were the hydroboost leaked. It's down to bare metal there
