Fluid film on rubber hoses in engine bay

Hey guys so I have a few rust spots on the inside of my engine bay. Some of the rust spots have rubber hoses on top of them. I know fluid film is safe on oil resistant rubber. So my question is are the hoses inside of our engine oil resistant rubber? Talking about the smaller hoses not the radiator hoses. Would it be safe to spray fluid film on or near them to get to the rusted hinges?

 

that is a good question!

 

can says should not harm oil resistant rubber.

 

FF on battery terminal, rotten stinky has gone away but still it is messy!
its the only thing i have sprayed FF on in the engine bay

 

Yes I know I’m asking if anyone knows if the rubber hoses in our engine bay are oil resistant. I know everything underneath is. Not sure about the engine bay though.

 

I assume everything in the engine bay is oil resistant.

 

is it the hose for the washer fluid?

 

Go for it !! Let us know what happens.

Just what hoses ? Vacuum hoses AC /Fuel Lines ?

Fluid Film smells so good it sort of migrated from the Shop into the living area smells like home from my misguided youth .

Before I burned it down

 

Fluid Film does smell good but Wool Wax works better, to bad it smells like a barn.

 

Never seen it used on battery terminals before...

 

Just what type of Barn ??

Different Critters have very different smells

 

To be safe I would mask it off before spraying. You would also get the benefit of a cleaner engine bay.

 

i got the idea from reading the directions on the FF rattle can. the battery terminal is the first listed use!

 

It's fine. I've got FF overspray all over my engine compartment on several different vehicles.

As for the smell of FF? I think it smells terrible. It reminds me of a cat litter box that's 3 days past needing to be cleaned.

 

wow we sure smell things different !!

Then indoor cats would not ever be a item!

So I can`t recall smelling a litter box full or empty.

 

I buy it in the gallon can. It's horrible. I have no idea if the aerosol version smells that bad.

Fortunately the smell goes away pretty fast.

 

aerosol smells funky too and lingers for a half day or so

 

Wool Wax will be the next test subject of mine if this fancy imported Canadian stuff fails the test (it has no smell which is a +++)
... smells like a barn will upset my city neighbors and attract dogs and their poo poo!
