Shutz or Waxoil or both?

(1/3) > >>

Fourby:
Spent a couple of hours jetwashing the underside of the Disco today. I also bought a shutz gun and canister.

I bought a canister of shutz simply for the canister to fit the gun. Although I've used waxiol before, I've never used shutz.

I also have a lage can of waxoil which was given to me, which started this whole thing off...

can I use both... one or the other?
Can someone enlighten me to the pro's and cons of using shutz?

dave_2A_2.25Turbo:
I'd Shutz the outside, waxoyle inside the rails etc. Shutz has a greater resistance to chipping etc.  Looks better too, unless you've got black waxoyle

Ja1983:
i was told by my local garage that a 50/50 mix gives the best of both worlds.

....worth a try, you can always go o ver it again with the one you prefer.

i also heard of using old engine oil and parrafin?? ..the chassis never seem to rot in the engine bay, where they get a bit of oil, so sounds reasonable...

rollazuki:
Shutz under the car, it dries tougher. Waxoil insode panels, inside doors and inside box sections/chassis etc.


BEWARE:

Shutz guns often come with the long tube for getting inside chassis etc. DO NOT use them in conjunction with the over the counter cans of waxoil.
They should be used with an additional aluminium 'jar' that you fill with waxoil and is pressure proof and fits in place of the waxoil/shutz can.

You WILL explode the can if you dont use one, and 2 litres of exploded waxoil is messy.

PS, heat the cans up in a tub of hot water to soften the underseal to get easier and better results.
