    We sell all three options: FOX, KING, and ICON. They are all great products, but can all have issues with rust and corrosion especially in adverse environments. We do now off the MAVCOAT SteelShield that can be safely sprayed on the coilovers as well as other components to help prevent any rust/corrosion from even starting.

    Does this make the shocks look like frozen piss like Fluid Film does?

    Haha!! No, it is clear. :thumbsup:

    I've used the Fluid Film. Good stuff, but it is messy.

    Yes. It has a mild lubricating property, and is safe for all rubbers, polys, wires, hoses, even the paint (i don't recommend spraying on your paint on purpose though).

    Shouldn't make a difference. The wiper on the seal cap will remove any excess.

    Is it sticky like fluid film? I can't see any color to the FF from all the filth it's picked up.

    The coating is not oily like other products, so it stays in place and does not run after application. It repels water, dirt, mud, and sand. Additionally, the polymer coating plates out on metal surfaces, which provides long-term lubrication in needed areas.

    We would have to ship it ground, which could take quite a while.

    Ideally you would apply it like paint, 1-3 very light coats. 1 can can can certainly cover all the front components an few times.
