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.
