i was under the impression waxoil is better for panel internals etc and shultz(contains waxoil) is better for arches and underneath.

waxoyl
mind and spray it up insidde all the holes underneath, in the chassis legs etc, keep it nice and rust free.

only do it though when the cars bone dry, no point doing it if cars wet or even damp.
take the car for a blast alongthe motorway to dry it out if its a good day

ive done it now, hosed what dirt was on there off (wasnt much), then had the space heater on to dry it up for quite a while while i stripped the other side, then waxoyld it all up. swapped round and did other side and same for front



quite easy, more so than i thought it ould be, gonna get it on a ramp and do chassis n floor pan next week i think
