Before and After underbody treatment

<< < (4/5) > >>

ibruceuk:
I managed to do mine in a day on my drive just on a set of normal ramps.

I did one side at a time put front and back wheel on ramps and used the waxoyl pressure can thingy.

A bit of advice, cover your drive if your bothered about it and wear old clothes as it will get EVERYWHERE!  I used 10 litres doing inside and out of chassis and everywhere underneath, including above the tank.

Keep the waxoyl hot if your using their sprayer as it flows much better.

Boggert:
Yep, My mate did his 90, made a cracking job of it, however he did look like the slime monster afterwards  :shock:  He did it using ramps and a trolly jack. But yes it was messy :!:

If you are doing it yourself, make sure the Waxoil tin is sitting in a tub of very hot water, makes it easier to apply.

--- Quote from: "lyndon" ---Thanks. His advert says he sprays it with a compound called Steelguard or MOD no. PX 24 designed to chase water from the engines of Harrier jump jets on navy aircraft carriers. It penitrates the chassis and leaves a paper thin coatsing that has anti rust properties so once the Waxoyl goes on it seals the stuff in there and prevents further rust forming.

Any comments on Rollering the paint work with matt army paint?.

PX24 is basically MOD equivalent to WD40 except that it perishes some rubbers,  i would be a bit worried about spraying this all over the bottom of the vehicle  :shock:

Take a look at my Painted Percy link

All done with elbow grease and a roller.

My 110 has been done underneath with some sort of treatment, chaps who replaced the gearbox said that the chassis was very sound with no welding anywhere  :D

Muddyrat. I can't see much in the picture as its to small. Any chance you could post a larger size photo. I take it you used Military paint ?.

Dude thats I really nice looking job well done mate.

I will have to do the old Waxoyl myself. Need to find some large heavy duty plastic sheeting to cover the drivway.

Cheers
