Hi guys been busy on the disco.
Removed all bumpers wheel liners exhaust heat shields etc.
Power washed all the underside and allowed to dry for 1 week.
Very surprised and happy at the lack of rust.spare wheel area had some surface rust but came off with wire brush.
Chassis very good mainly still black with original paint. Bit rustler by rear wheel hubs.
Sills and all wheel arch's rust free. Bit of mud and leaves in between front wing were it joins sills but again no rust.
Bit of light rust were tow electrics sit, scrapped with a small screw driver all good now.
First I treated every were there was surface rust with bilthamber hydrate 80, allowed to dry. Then sprayed the upol raptor liner on all surfaces, including chassis.
Then allowed to dry for a week.(I used 6 litres of the stuff)
Then lanoguarded inside chassis rails sills cross members etc. Then every were else on body including diffs etc.
Then re assembled. Looks awsome now, the upol should sound proof it further as well
Hope you like the pics
Mike
