best protection for your mechanicals


boeshield.com

6 months of metal protection

Boeshield T-9. Get a bottle, spray the engine, spray the suspension, spray the metal XREAS cylinders, spray the engine bay.

Be happy and enjoy protection...

Originally developed by Boeing for aircraft cleaning/lube/protection. This stuff is awesome. It sticks to metal and melts away grime. It sticks for 6 months and is waterproof.

I sprayed the engine, headers (which were iron-rusted, common) but the Boeshield cleaned everything up. It's really incredible stuff.

Use it for bike chains, etc, safe on any auto surface- plastic, painted, great for the battery terminals...it goes on and on.

My bike shop has it, tool shops, metal-working shops or boeshield.com

The aerosol can is what I got. Handy.

I'll be able to get some from the source hopefully around Xmas time or after I hear, maybe even before

Things are picking up at last at the big B.

Yeah Corey, this stuff rocks. Do you think you can get a group buy? I'd be in for a 12-pack or something

The suspension feels glassy smooth after hitting all the piviots...maybe it's my imagination but everything feels smoother (I sprayed down the driveshafts/slip yokes too)

Oh, I sprayed the rear diff breather to help prevent clogging and the exhaust/headers should never rust now!...love that stuff.

I might be interested in a group buy also...I'd just have to be careful not to get it on any belts or pulleys.

It says it's good for loosening rusty and corroded parts. Safe on paints,plastics and vinyls.

If I spray it on grouchy elderly people, will they go away?

Bob, sorry for the delay
Here is the header that was treated-untouched it stayed this way. You can see the "fat" part that I didn't do-all crusty


Here's starting to spray that area and cleaning


And here it is finished- all I did was spray, wipe off, and spray to let dry. Really easy.
