Thread: Long Salty Trip

Tectyl is the go,paint on where you can,yes messy but no pain no gain

Park on nature strip,use disposal overalls...

Then use Tectyl spray can for the hard to get to places.

While away park in freshwater creek and give her a good wash every so often,use 12 volt shower pump to help.

Have a good trip

I have been using "Lanotec" for years on aluminium boats and boat trailers and I find it to be fantastic stuff, I just spray it on and it is also good for battery terminals as well.
The only downside is that all the dust sticks to it.

Have used lemon scented, pressure-pack lanolin on vehicle underbodies for protection against salted winter roads.

Messy to apply. Easy to see and maintain coverage though.

Sand will stick to it but degreaser should sort that out post-trip.

Might be problematic when applying to keep it off certain areas though (shock pistons, brakes etc) ?

Ever thought of electronic rust protection this option is more expensive but once on is set and forget uses bugger all power and if you sell your car take it off and use o next car works out cheaper in the long run.

I always thought they were like hiclone do they work??

Which island are you going to?

I have found electronic rust protection works very well

I thought the electronic only worked on brand new vehicles.
