    Discovery - things to look for / avoid

    Hi..no, it was about a pint of what looked to be Everards Old Original...although I can't say it tasted the same when I got a face full...there was a lot of Waxoil that I had to dig through (once I got the plastic grommet out) with a length of wire.

    Discovery - things to look for / avoid

    Has anyone ever had a central door pillar full of water on a Disco 2....or am I just the lucky one?

    Waxoyl?

    With only 'slight surface rust' and very undisturbed original surfaces this sounds ideal as you won't be trapping corrosion. I was advised that it takes at least four+ days of dry weather driving to dry the chassis internals out thoroughly. Hope the job goes well...

    Waxoyl?

    You would need to get the ACF50 deep into the chassis beams and internal voids and guarentee full coverage to be effective. I've not tried ACF50 (as I haven't found anything better than light oil ..I'll certainly check it out though) but a Chassis Wand will get deep in there (and cills...

    Waxoyl?

    Chassis rust starts from the inside.....very very true. Wax will lay relatively innafectively over oxidisation and quite quickly lift of the surface as the corosion becomes friable (de-laminating plates of oxide) and moisture enters behind the wax and the oxidising quickly excellerates (the...

    Disco 1 Causes of rust in the rear end

    Hi all, I would swerve Waxoyling over Corosion like the plague as it will eventually trap moisture behind the wax and first stage corrosion will quickly turn to rot, this is especially true for the internal chassis surfaces. My Disco 2 chassis is like new ..both inside and out, simply by...

    Rustproof an old girl

    Hi all, thought you may like to know how I'm the owner of a Disco2 with a chassis that looks like it's just come out of the factory. Firstly...there's a growing realisation between LR enthusiasts that Waxoyling over steel that's started its oxidisation cycle simply traps and even excellerates...

    Chassis rust

    My perspective is that there seams to be a growing number of people that have witnessed similar moisture trapping and excellerated corrosion under Waxoyl when it's applied over previously corroded steel, I know that I've been disappointed how corrosion tends to sweat under these waxy layers, to...

    Discovery - things to look for / avoid

    I've owned a Discovery 2 TD5 for a while now and its a great and capable vehicle, it has its weaknesses that are well understood and discussed on the net....the killer can be chassis rot and sadly many owners simply hide this under layers of wax products until its too late and your looking at...

    Chassis rust

    Hi all, im a big advocate of Duck Oil (marketed by Swarfega) its very penetrating and will find its way underneath failing paint surfaces and rust accelerating wax products. After a couple of applications with a pump sprayer the chassis will constantly look wet with oil and a perfect water...
