 A wrap-up of various rust-proofing/undercoating products common on the market: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXlhmbvdKBo|Real World Undercoating: Part 1]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SOOfZFmhSY|Part 2]]
+Short take-away; for application onto bare clean metal, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmoline|Cosmoline]] (sold under many different brands) works extremely well. It dries hard and tough, and unlike "wet" rust prevention products it will not attract dirt/debris.
+[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lanolin|Lanolin]]-based products also work very well, however the coating is typically thicker and is not as durable or resistant to strikes from debris (such as gravel or other items kicked up by vehicle tires). It is however safe for accidental application onto rubber and plastic, whereas petroleum-based products may weaken or degrade such materials.
