Description
Overview
Sierra Fogging Oil protects internal engine surfaces during storage periods. The aerosol spray forms a thin, active barrier that shields metal parts from corrosion and rust. It avoids greasy residue and prevents smoky discharge at startup, so the engine remains clean and ready for use. This solution suits both 2-stroke and 4-stroke petrol marine engines.
Features
- Sprays directly into air intake, carburettor or cylinders for fast coverage
- Creates a moisture-resistant film that blocks oxidation
- Works effectively with outboard, stern drive and inboard petrol engines
- Leaves minimal residue and keeps startups smooth

Compatibility and Fitment
Sierra Fogging Oil suits petrol (gasoline) marine engines of both 2-stroke and 4-stroke types. Use it with outboard motors, stern drives and inboard engines. Warm the engine and follow the manufacturer’s fumigation procedure for best results.
Compliance and Safety
This aerosol contains flammable propellants, so store it below 50 °C and handle it in well-ventilated areas. Review the Safety Data Sheet for detailed first aid information and handling guidance. Follow all local marine storage regulations to ensure safe compliance.
Marine Applications
During long storage, humidity and temperature swings often cause corrosion inside engines. Sierra Fogging Oil counteracts these effects by coating cylinder walls, piston rings and valves. Therefore, it becomes particularly valuable for winter lay-up, off-season storage or extended idle periods.
