I am too far from any shop that does Krown (closest is over 2 hours away), Corrosion Free 3000, etc. So I'm trying to find the cheapest way to do a good DIY job. A gallon of Rust Cure/Corrosion Free 3000 costs $65 on their site. A pair of two aerosol cans is $30, so 6 cans would be $90 since they don't have any bulk aerosol quantities listed on their site, except for a package that's over $500 with 6 cans, a 5-gallon pail, and a very expensive spray gun (or $325 with a cheaper spray gun).
Air compressors are so expensive, and the spray guns are pricey, too! Trying to decide whether it's even worth it to buy one, or just buy a bunch of cans.
Krown is $50 for 6 cans, but I recently learned about the CF 3000, and it seems to be better than Krown. However, regardless of what oil I actually use, I'd buy some Krown Salt eliminator to keep on hand.
I found this electric spray gun for $20 at Harbor Freight. It's primarily designed for spray painting, but could it also be used for rustproofing? This seems like the best option, the gallon of CF3000 and this electric spray gun.
HF also has this air compressor for just under $60. Their spray guns are $20, so total would be $80.
What would be the best way to go?
The electric spray gun
The compressor and spray gun
Just buy the aerosol cans
Drive the 2+ hours to the Krown shop
