    Question Anti-Corrosion Chemicals

    http://www.acf-50.co.uk/automotive.htm
    Anyone know where you can get this or similar type of Rust Protection Chemical here in Oz
    They say it's better than the old Wax type preventive measures.
    If I can't locate the chems to DIY, Anyone know where to go in SEQ to have Rust Protection Chemicals applied to our (new) 4WD's

    Geez, it's been years since I have seen ACF50 anywhere, trialled it on some trawler equipment in the late nineties ....... was impressed with the performance but unimpressed with the cost considering the limited use it would get...... still, a good product

    Question

    I recently noticed this product made by "inox", it's called "Lanox MX4", I've seen it in Supercheap, on the can it says, "a must for beach driving, protect all parts from harmful corrosion, safe on all rubbers and doesn't wash off with water".
    You could google it or try www.inoxmx.com
    Cheers, Pickles.

    Question WHAT TO DO

    Well i'm confused - Everybody you talk to says buy my Electronic Corrosion Device, Is this now the "Best" way to Protect our 4WDs from Corrosion?

    I have a New Defender coming from the Mother Country & they come with Corrosion starting from day 1 FOC, I was thinking of putting on a nice little chemical to spray In & Over the new D90 that will Fight & Protect from Rust from day 1. This will be a long term Daily Driver + always wanted a Defender since I was 21 only took 20+ years to get my act together & get one.

    Q: What to do - Spray a "Lanolin" type product a "Oil" based product a "Wax" type product or the "Electronic" type product Hmmm maybe a combination of two Chem & Elec?

    Q: What have you long term Land Rover Enthusiasts do that is Tried & Proven.
    (other than stripping Galving & Painting a brand new Defender)

    I've read things on - LanoxMX4, CorrosionBlock, Xtroll, Tectyl506 i've just confused myself now

    Read around on here about the electronic rust protectors. You'll find some very strong opinions on them.

    I had my RRC endrusted in the first year of ownership of 13 years.
    In that time no rust came through anywhere except one small bubble in the corner of the tailgate , which is folded metal and will always rust. I was able to stop it by applying the wax+acid that the Endrust guy gave to me 13 years ago.

    Mine was only chemical with the black wax on the body /Chassis exterior and clear type wax in the cavities.
    The clear /acid stuff dicoloured the paint where it touched it but seems magic in cavities.

    Corroless and Rustlac were good products. They had quite a range. some of their stuff was active and contained phosphoric acid which continued to convert rust as it formed.

    That's only because you did not have it correctly wired up to your Hyclone and your Shoo Roo ........................
