Throw it back in the harbourWhat would you do?.
I have similar to do on my Freelander rear subframe!

But surely the big downside of aerosols is that the coating is thinner than a brushed layer? On the underside, I don't care at all what it looks like as long as its preventing rust.
used on oil rigs and by the mod is another favoriteArthur, do a search for "snake oil" and you might find it
ah, do they sell that in the local depot?Arthur, do a search for "snake oil" and you might find it
Well, true, but also true of any other coating. Even galv just shows down corrosion.used on oil rigs and by the mod is another favorite
all these slops just slow things down by sealing out the air and water , lets face it there wouldnt be rusty cars if it was so easy eh
hiding it under black slop isnt fixing it
That will be a lanolin product. Its snake oil (sheep oil actually) and they don't work.on one of these threads I read of one rust "treatment" that nuetralised salt and sealed as primer , now cant find it , anyone know which it would be. thanks
The thing is, is that is as EVEN layer with no thin or missed bits. You can slap it on with a brush afterwards.But surely the big downside of aerosols is that the coating is thinner than a brushed layer? On the underside, I don't care at all what it looks like as long as its preventing rust.
will out live you. i bought some galve farm gates 45 years ago and theres no rust showing through whatsoeverThe thing is, is that is as EVEN layer with no thin or missed bits. You can slap it on with a brush afterwards.
And lets be honest here, there is no product on earth that will prevent rust permanently. All we are doing is slowing it down. Even galvanising and epoxy will fail eventually in the fullness of time. Nature always wins.
Conversely the galvanised original front bumper on my Landrover failed after ten years.....will out live you. i bought some galve farm gates 45 years ago and theres no rust showing through whatsoever
