nov Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Have a look on http://krown.co.uk/uk/krown_application/Rust_treatment_process to see how this should be done properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian24 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 It's actually called waxoil. I'd is normally sprayed on. The vehicle will need to go on a hydraulic ramp so the mechanic can get to all of the underside. Well worth doing as the Japs do not use salt on their roads, so the underside won't corrode.😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcous Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 (edited) Hi Iain, We had ours treated in 2022 and then checked last year to see if it needed 'topping up' (no need...).The treatment was upol with added waxoyl, our sprayer said the underside was clean enough to avoid prior steam cleaning, so it wasn't too pricey. Roads aren't salted in Japan, so I gather this is the reason that vehicles aren't undersealed. In the UK, on the other hand....
