Fluid Film works for me?

The test was to be on my own car,which has been under restoration ever since we bought it about 28 years back,with the space needed to build a competition Hillman Imp,the Jaguar had to be parked outside and on grass. The silver painted wire wheels could take damage over the winter period if not protected?


This is what the wheels looked like after a four month period,one spray can was used to apply the Fluid Film,it was just enough for all four,I did the outsides only.Would it work,only time would tell of course.


Judge for yourself (left click the pics to view in more detail) I used a water soluable cleaner and applied with a small paint brush (18mm) that took some time but after power wash the result was perfect.

How hard can this be!


The spinners were less of a concern being chrome plated


Nearly new,the wheels were fitted some years back but as the car is garaged normally,there is little wear.


A 1966 Jaguar 3.8 S type,the twin camshaft engine is said to deliver 220bhp,which is just as well,this is a lot of quality built car.Similar restorations can be undertaken of your own car.
