clean it well first, best to use a high pressure spray gun to really get it in all the little gaps and crevices.

also bear in mind that if you miss any bits the rust will attack them much worst than it would before you waxoiled the car! bloody rust!!!

if u wanna do a real lethal job, strip ur door cards off etc and ur tailgate trims and wax the life out of the inside of them. strip off ur side panels and get a proper wax gun with a nozzle for gettin into holes etc and wax inside ur sills, inside 1/4s. u can basically wax everything on ur corsa

excellent.
i probably will do a lethal job, i can see its one of those things that i will get very carried away on, like painted stuff under the engine, only wanted to do a couple of bits and ended up doing the whole thing

cheers guys
