You guys are pretty tough, especially when I come up with an idea. But I have been pursuing information on a process of rust protection and arrest for inaccessable areas like the rockers, doors, lower rear portions of the front fenders and rear edge of rear deck lid. Things like that. Not to mention the whole 914!
I know there are fleet applications for the military and the likes of UPS. I have found a few candidates for the job. One is sold under the name Carwell Rust Cop. Another is a cosmoline based product that hardens and seals. Has a fantastic life span as opposed to the Rust Cop which must be renewed periodically. (And that makes marketing sense beacuse Carwell is really in the application business so why would they feature a one time process when they can come back time and again?) A third is a lanolin base that can be used safely around the interior and taillight housings where it might get on the paint. The cosmoline formula is tough to remove once on. There is even another 'Vaseline,' or petolatum, based one for a lighter more temporary use in the shop. Comments? Anyone have any additional info for this type of thing? Seems like with our older cars, we would need as much rust protection as we can get. __________________ |

Um,
Someplace I've got one of those Brit car magazines that had a big article on rust. They took metal plates, coated 1/2 of them with the rust inhibitor/treatment and scraped a scratch across the rust treatment. Then they put them on a carousel outdoors and sprayed them with salty water once a week FOR A YEAR. Then they wrote the article. The best materials were those cosmoline like honey colored cavity waxes. As I recall, waxoyl didn't come out too bad but the best materials were several Dinotrol formulations. In the UK they sell them in spray bombs or at the rust treatment places. Did a huge search about 3-4 years ago and could only find the stuff sold in Canada. Iffin you find some, Kenny want!
