Which is better in terms of price and the rust proofing capabilities? Waxoyl or that Dinitrol?

Practical classics magazine once did a Waxoyl vs Dinitrol test. They found Dinitrol to be far superior at preventing rust.

Sounds good, I'll be ordering some of that then, cheers :)

MAke sure you get the correct stuff. There are lots of differrent Dinatrol products.

[yousmeg]

is this aerosol waxoyl the stuff that looks a bit like scrambled egg if you dont shake the can properly?

if so, ive found it very useful for getting in the little nooks around a mini

[andyboy!!]

how much of the stuff do you need for a mini? doing inner wings, underside of outer wings, doors, valances?

[duffman]

yeah it looks like scrambled egg lol.

i got 2 tins and it was just enough to do the underside, i only bought it originally to coat the arches and subbies but out of curiosity i wondered how far it would go.

i managed to cover both subbies, all under side, arches etc, pretty much everything from the wheel arches down.
its not cost effective though at £9 a tin BUT it is handy to have around for fresh work or quick application

[conlad]

so which dinitrol stuff is what would be needed as a rust proofing undercoat in places like sills and arches? the 3125 stuff or 4941?

[sport2000]

I used 3125 inside the sills and in boot rear pockets etc etc
4941 underside floor,behind rear valance,inner rear arches etc etc
