Area Representative Golf Juliet Tango Posted August 23, 2010 Area Representative Share Posted August 23, 2010 Regarding the repair of my 21. Whilst the body is off and being repaired, it would be a good idea to put plenty of corrosion preventative on the chassis. I have been reading through this page and was wondering which products from the selection people reccomend. Can I use a single product all the way round, or are the variations significant? I presume spray application is prefered generally but is there a place for brush application? This thread suggests 3125 and 4941. I like the sound of the 445 which is "permanently elastic anti-stone chip product" for "high abrasion like wheel arches". I have looked under the bonnet of several 21s and the inner wheel arches and the spaceframe tubes ther all look awful on all of them. Should I use something different inside the engine bay (remember that there is an undertray on the 21)? What have other people used and why? I have some small tins of POR15 and Chassis Coat Black to replace the powder coating where neccesary (that is several places!) Democratic dissent is not disloyalty, it is a positive civic duty.

jackb_ms Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I will be watching this thread I was also thinking about something on the bonnet in the wheel arches to protect the body work from being attack by stones pick up by the tyres which 445 could do the trick.

Area Representative Golf Juliet Tango Posted August 25, 2010 Author Area Representative Share Posted August 25, 2010 OK Jack My chassis is at Arch at the moment, so it will be a while before I start some repainting. Only after that will I apply the Dinitrol. I rather expect that I will get all three types! Democratic dissent is not disloyalty, it is a positive civic duty.

jackb_ms Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 On a different note, if you need a new steering column CC is the place to go for £95+VAT Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
