Not sure, I haven't had the balls to use it on my 3door yet and having looked at under my car now it's stripped I don't think I will need to use it as I have no rot at all.
Just needs a good clean, 3M spray sealer and painting.

Cleaned the underside with shit loads of petrol, at least the oil leak has stopped any rust.
It's like new!!





Then applied some 3M spray sealer like I used on my Escort

Cheers Mark, a lot of the car was wax oiled and also it has a really bad oil leak so underneath was caked in oil, so lucky for me absolutely no rust.
