Title: Just gave the underside a jet wash and a few coats of dynax uc.
Post by: Mikeyd1 on 03 September 2023, 14:35
Just gave the underside a jest wash as all the subframes and suspension components was looking a bit rusty then gave it 2 coats of dynax uc . Should keep the rust at bay . I was going to use lanoguard for ease but looking at real reviews ( not lanoguards Facebook or sponsored reviews ) I don’t think it’s that good . Anyways here’s some pic . Not bad for a 6 year old car

Late reply but I'm going to do this in the next couple of weeks, weather permitting. I'm going to use Dynax UB (the harder brown wax) for behind the liners and and non-visible areas and UC for the rest.

You're right about a Lanoguard, most favourable 'reviews' are sponsored or just astroturfing, and that they recommend applying it every 6 months tells me that it's not very durable.

I’m planing to do wheels arches at the end of this summer also gives me a chance to see how the uc is holding up and top up if required.

Well it’s been a year so a good clean and undercoating the arches with Dynax Uc. This job was bit longer and difficult but glad I’ve done it . Jet washed arches and underbody and agitated with billet Hamber surface hd then dryed and a few heavy coats of Dynax Uc. Trying to preserve this car as much as possible. Here’s some pics
