Any recommendations as to how much cavity wax (ml3125) I need for the chassis and sills on a 300tdi?
Cheers

I would have thought two gallon ought to do it.

After quick search found a 5 litre tin for £50. cheaper than a ton of welding!

I was thinking it would be chassis inside and out, under body, sills inside and out, under the rear quarters, rear body cross member, boot floor and the whole of the front end.
No point being cheap, it will cost triple in the future with an MOT failure and then welding repairs.
i was more thinking I would get the tetroseal chassis wax which is 38 quid for two gallons, do the whole car though might need three gallons and top up annually with another gallon, meaning you could do roughly 10yrs for the same money?
I know the dinitrol is meant to be good, but is it 10yr good?
Far from posh/named brand but I have been using this for a few years now, used to use Morris ankor wax before it got silly expensive.

I will be honest here, I already have the Dinitrol.
6 of them delivered to the door with applicator was insane cheap off Hamazone, think they were £40 delivered to the door.

Thats under half price of the other gear mentioned further up.
Tbh I rekcon if you add 10 percent engine oil, give it a good mix it will still do the job.
@lynall I just did some googling and it seems the stuff I have is for post "cavity wax" application which means it is a waxing top coat
Had a feeling £40 was a bit cheap, off to see what else I needs to spend on
Ive done the same thing many many times!

Mix it with White spirits.
So it's like water, then spray it on!
Hmm.
Very nice.

Let me just get up off the floor
How much
Lol, can get it cheaper if u shop around, are u using an air compressor or aerosol
Think on mine it was 3 x litres inside chassis , 6 x litres outside
That’s also removing inner wheel arches , sill covers etc
