Car question for you clever people.

[Maxtor]

I use Jenolite to treat rust, its used by the M.O.D and an area I treated 2 yrs ago on my van has not come back= http://www.rejel.com/rejel-store/list/1/categoryid/1249/level/a.aspx

Its available at most auto spare shops.

 

Cheers for that.

The best form of rust protection is grease or oil.the best way is to scrub it up with a wire brush then you can treat it with rust converter.its a sort of chemical paint that you apply to the rust and it turns the rust into good metal again, you then paint over it with under seal or slap some grease on it..

 

Thanks to you two for your help also

Once there is rust on the underside of a car, its almost pointless to try and get rid of it. Just use a wire brush and remove all the loose bits, then paint over the top of it with ..

underseal.

 

The trouble with underseal is it tends to seal in the moisture like sticking something plastic over it,the amount of times I've come to weld a chassis and scraped the underseal off just to find loads of rust held together by the underseal,rust tends to come from the inside of the metal you only see the front part when you clean it off and paint it over with underseal thats why you should use something like rust converter.

I am very dubious that any rust converter works. At the very best it will do the same thing that underseal does. It seals in the rust.

Its supposed to be a chemical reaction..listen if Edd China uses it its got to be good.

Bang on. Painting over rust with whatever will accelerate the rust. If it's a minor rust patch (just light skin) hammerite will do the job. Wider tin worm needs to be gone for good. The only way on this deal is hard work with a grinder and remove the lot and coat it.

 

Lobbing underseal on a rotted sill will only make it worse. Better leaving it too rot in the free air!
