oooo our mam wud go mad like that time i spilt oil all over the drive lol

i was hoping for some kind of spray-on type, i take it the stuff your talking about is going to be a thick gooey stuff?

[Dazza1]

Halfrauds any motor store should sell it, Hammarite Wax-oil and underbody sealent is good stuf. Even the spray paint is quite messy tho. Its ok if you prep the car first, Masking tape newspaper etc.
Good luck mate:y:!

i was wondering about this as i've never bothered with prevoius car but they where all shit heeps lol how much would it be to get it wax oiled ? also where would i get it done ? mechanics or bodyshop or valeting place ?

you got access to a garage ?????

best thing to do is pressure wash the underside let it dry in the garage wire brush the worst bits and fill -catalloy(sp)- any bits the you think are looking worse than you though, prime either paint or cans (pain the cheap option) then get tetroseal or as you mentioned waxoyl (these come in paint on or cans as you've mentioned) 2 or 3 coats, get a few spray cans for the areas you cant get in to with the brush!!!

if you dont have a garage just make sure the underside is totally dry and wire brush the car and it will be quite dusty wear a mask!!!!

the sprey cans will make you all spotted lol and its a total pain in the arse to get off well worth it when its finished!!!

hope this kinda helps.............good luck!!!


Edit:- Bakki, there are two companys that do it, well landrovers but im sure if you phoned they will say ye or nae!!!!

forgot to day that i undersealed mine about 2 years back. for the first 4 years of owning my car it never got used for the winter months as i used the ex's car during that time. but a year before we split i managed to get use of a car lift for a couple of days. first thing i did was to wash the arches and underside of the car, then i removed the wheels. gave the first coat on the first day to the arches and underside, then the second day came back and gave the second coat the the areas i did. i also removed the front arch liners and did behind them. still ok now. :y:

[vtcarl]

forgot to say again..... look in the project threads in the sxoc forum thats where you will find some helpful info.
