Now I did more research and it seems CRC 06026 Heavy Duty Corrosion Inhibitor could be a better product, at least it's a one time deal, to my understanding.
I am trying to avoid having to fluid film every year ....
So how do I spray CRC over fluid fild now ? Is it possible ? Last I checked underneath, it's all a bit oily but not too bad.
I don't have a lift and fluid film was a pain to apply, if CRC can be applied one time (2 coats and giving it 12 hours for each coat to cure) I would totally go for that.
Seattle area is not really bad for rust but I still want to overcoat my 4runner.
Any thoughts appreciated.

Yes, from the Project Farm test, the CRC HD is better. It’s also important to spray inside the frame using a 360 degree hose attachment. FYI, Fluid film will come off with a pressure washer. Fluid Film now has the black version which is better than their original. If available in your area, just go to an authorized NH Oil undercoating shop and do annual touch ups. If a shop, that does NH Oil or Fluid Film Black is available, remove the spare and skidplates and have your undercarriage steam cleaned before getting the oil based product installed. You can spray the skidplate yourself with CRC after you get home. FYI, oil based products will stay a bit wet/moist but that’s what makes them a better rust inhibitor.
