Whats the best way of doing this assuming i have it back to bare metal.

- Treat and prime
- Sealer / Stoneguard
- Paint
- Waxoyl

Anyone any suggestions on the sealer/stoneguard which product to use

Much appreciated

3M BAG SEALER.It's £7 a bag and i used 15 bags,but it really is the BEST stuf you can get.

If it,s baremetal,these are the steps you can do.

1.ETCH PRIMER ON TOP OF BARE METAL
2.BAG SEALER.
3.PAINT(HAMMERITE).
4.WAXOIL BOX SECTIONS AND CREVISES.
