Sounds like this stuff is similar.
Hi Matt,

So what I've read (never sure what to believe) is that you want a product that doesn't harden but stays relatively fluid/liquid-like. I don't know if the wax products actually dry or not. Anyway, time will tell, I plan to get a big batch of this fluid film stuff and spray the bejezus out of the under side of the car before the salt season, so we'll see. I hate to see how this thing is just slowly dissolving. :-( It always seems like what you see as visible rust is just the tip of the iceberg and if you really pull up carpets and seats you begin to see what is really going on.
