Underseal ?

[The Swede]

I remember the scoob looked very shabby underneath after having spent a winter here. The surfaces of all suspension elements and exhaust looked completely corroded.

Hope to avoid that with the Evo.

Since I don't fancy playing "The man from planet Mars" again at our local Mitsi dealer, I was hoping to protect the underside myself.

Any good ideas on how to do so ? What product to use ?

Want to protect the exhaust too and understand waxoil doesn't really work on that.

Asked the question on MLR but best these tw@ts could come up with was "remove the rust" (:confused: I got a brand f*cking new car !!) and "paint underside with Bitumen...

Anyone ? Martin ? Marky ?

Last time I waxoiled a car was my Punto GT a few years back.

Simply got the car as high as I could in the air on a combination of axle stands and ramps, washed down the underside as best I could by hand and let it dry good and proper before spraying the whole of the underside of the car.

The only things I masked were the brakes, suspension and around the oil filter. I removed the exhaust and the exhaust heat sheild. The stuff goes everywhere, into all the noucks and crannies (plus up your nose) and 1 coat was easily sufficient.

Easy job which was completed well within the alloted weekend and lasted years until the car was sold on.

I have no idea of the best stuff to use Sandy - sorry!

So clearly the exhaust should not be touched ?

Why not the suspension, if I can ask. I would assume it's not running hot
