I've been looking at previous discussions on waxoiling etc and there seems to be a mixed response.

Is waxoil a bad thing thing to put on the underside of my 3door, its been painted white underneath but i'm worried about it rotting out over the winter months

so i was going to clean it off and spray it with the clear waxoil

is this the best thing or is there something else i should be doing to it?

Any help is greatly appreciated

 

I was talking to Moorland Classics yesterday about the same topic, as the underside of my one has been paitned white, too...

They recommend taking off the arch liners, and pressure blasting off any grime under the car. They then let the car dry for a few days to ensure they don't end up trapping water in with the Waxoil. They then apply as much wax oil as they can. They also inject it into sills and chassis arms etc.

It certainly seems to work for them.

Best of luck.

 

Thanks Diablo,

this seems like the way forward, i really dont want a rusty car by the end of winter

Do you think clear waxoil is ok to use?

Cheers matt

 

waxoyls sum great stuff ive pumped about 5litres in2 mine so far as said above make sure is totally dry what people cant see cant hurt but make sure in doors boots bonnets you dont block water drain away holes

 

get rid of the ford to get rid of the rust lol

 

Whilst i have never used the clear Waxoil myself, I have only heard good things.

BTW: Moorland Classics charge £250+VAT for the entire job.

As said, make sure you have killed any rust there to start with! then make sure car is 100% dry then just plaster wax oil everywhere!!!

floor!!

Mine has decent floor pans but poo sills and a dodgy inner wing, i'll try and get some pics up, i'm gonna sell mine soon

Rust coloured car lol

 

don't get it wet, no prob keep it out the of rain or ship it to l.a. u.s.a. l.o.l

 

sills full of waxoil certainly makes it interesting if you forget and do a bit of welding.
