I haven't had an issue with cab corners, I do have an issue with the black trim around the rear window.

I have a 2004 and the drivers side cab corner is rusting out pretty quickly. What can I do to slow it down until I can get it repaired? It's the only spot on my truck where I have rust. Also a couple of you mentioned something called "fluid film", what is that?

For what it's worth, FF is good stuff, but only for areas that don't get washed or sprayed with a high pressure hose. It's comes off easily.

Actually fluid film comes in three versions. One is like paste, the medium is like syrup and then the spray can. I use then spray cans and for normal car washes it holds up for a 2 to 3 months pretty good and it the easiest DYI to do. The medium "Syrup" version requires air compressor and undercoating gun. Here in Jersey one one place I know of in north jersey applies it to vehicles professionally. New York State and canal it's common and the medium syrup version professionally sprayed does last 1 full year .

Liquid A is the aerosol spray can and the NAS is applied using the air compressor and undercoating gun and the last is applied by a brush.

Good to know, I didn't think they had 3 different viscosity formulas.
