Re: Best Rust Proofing?
get a tin of rust proof from super cheap, mix it 50/50 with auto transmission fluid then spray it with high pressure into every hole in the body you can find.
Re: Best Rust Proofing?
If your talking about the 3m product rust proofing in a pressure pack - DONT BOTHER. I used the whole 3m series rust desolver, rust converter and rust proofing. I was planning to spray over it. The stuff never actually dries or goes off. Had to girnie it all back to bar metal in those spots. Find something better. Acid etch primer.
Re: Best Rust Proofing?
yeah i was thinking of going with the tectyl, will it be good to use in the chassis and in the cab?

Re: Best Rust Proofing?
yeah use tectyl and the oil is to stop it drying out and becoming useless.
Re: Best Rust Proofing?
Going to give this stuff a go on tanks and chassis. http://www.kbs-coatings.com.au/kbs-rustseal" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
