Thread: Rustproofing for the beach

Sorry I'm apparently not awake.

I gather then that you believe that 6 cans would be adequate ? It's just that I'm going beach driving next month and want to be "protected" but may not get a chance to buy compressors etc in the meantime.

open both eyes,,,,,


tectyl, is a wonderful anti rust/water agent,,,,

u could do worse than get under the dfender with 6 cans and go crazy,,,

just dont get any in your eyes,,,,, 8O

Where do I buy it ? Bunnings or somewhere like that ?
What should I NOT spray ? I presume things like the exhaust would be a good place not to spray... any others ?
What should I spray apart from the chassis ?

Keep away from things that get hot,,,
everything else is open slather,,

usual thing with anti rust stuff,,
use about 400 times more than required,,,

from every conceivable angle,
cause the salt will,,,

Most town water along the coast(s) has salt in it. 8O Albeit less salt than that on the beach sand, still.... fact is any vehicle near the coast or on the coast will without serious treatment. Cans of spray will only do so much.

Suppose you could always trade it in before the rust starts to appear and get another defenda. :wink:

Mate now you're starting to depress me

At least I can slow the process down..... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

I can't afford to trade it in.

Besides - then I'd have to start all over again.

I use 4L in the cavities and 4L mixed with black on the underside on Disco's. Vlad where in Brisbane are you.

I am at Redcliffe (northside), but "Have Ute, Will travel".

Why ?
