rust treatment

anybody used that rust stuff that supposed to change rust to like solid metal
is it any good , or a load of old tosh??

in my opponion it s*** and dont work just prolongs the enevtible

It depends on the product, once applie and set it need coating or the rust will encroach again.

i think its useless to,tryed it a number of times,the rust always comes though (on the bodywork that is)....

One of the best treatments is POR15 its expensive but works, the only problem is it breaks down it left in direct sunligh it isnt UV resistant, so after a day or two of curing you need to paint/spray over it and you will have no problems.

Its ok to use underneath the car in shaded areas, word of warning dont get any on nuts or bolts it near enough welds them in place and they are a pig to get off :oops:

Classic car restorers use it.

think the stuff i used was called 'krusty' sure it was,someone will no if thats the brand name

loads of different ideas here, never heard the fibre glass one b4 , am going to try 1 on underside of truck as its not too bad at all going to wire brush on drill an then treat with one of the above :drink:

Another one for the pot......My local garage suggested used chip fat oil mixed with waxoyl....any coments welcome as I would also like to treat the underside of my Fronty in the summer. The underside is in quite good nick at the moment (2000 DTi), just looking to protect it a little.

Thanks,
Huw.

i know loads of the lads on the paj site used wd40 start of every winter just sprayed on a few cans, they used to swear by it
