Fluid Film, Good rust inhibiter. What are negatives Options

On places that I can't or won't paint I use this. I used it in the rear section of the tunnel from the gear shift to back. On the front part I was able to clean and paint. I used it in the bottom of the floor pan. The wiper assembly was cleaned using it.

I was putting a little on the metal parts of the valve assembly for the fresh air and defrroster and was surprised to see how it seemed to blacken and clean the plastic. It seemed to work better than back to black and really made the parts look new. The label say it will not harm plastic and I have had it on the air valve for over a week and it seems to stay the same. As of now, unless I hear something else I plan to use it on the air box.. I would like to know if anyone has had experience with this product.

I have been in the plastics biz for 43 years. Finishing and polishing plastic castings. What I have found to be the very best to clean and give the plastic a dust repellent is Novis 1, 2, 3

If you need to remove scratches start at 3 and go to 2 then 1. One looks like watered down milk. Dust really bounces off of a part that has been treated. Warning! If you use Novis the part will not want to be masking taped after treatment. This works great on plastic lenses. I am not a paid spokesperson for Novis. Just a customer that is very happy.

A story. I was bending acrylic sheet over forms after heating the sheet in my pizza oven and after forming the parts, I found little mark off from dust. Someone suggested that I use Novus to make sure that the dust would not be attracted to the plastic. It worked like magic.
