Hi all,
I've owned my Range Rover Classic about 5 years now, and in that time I've done a lot to stop the dreaded rust bug from taking its life.
I've had the axles off, along with all radius arms, steering bars, anti-roll bars etc and put them through an industrial shot blaster. I've had two new sills and rear wheel arches, and have painted the chassis numerous times.
The trouble is, it seems that no paint is hard enough to withstand the the wet road salt and gatherings of mud.
My Classic is mainly a road only vehicle, do its not like I'm abusing it.
The products I have been using are:
First: Hammerite rust killer. (in the tiny bottle)
Second: Hammerite No More Rust (in a beige colour that shows up if chipped off)
Final Coat: A thick layer of Hammerite Gloss Black put on with a paint brush and left thick.
Guess what, the rust has come back.
What do you guys use to stop the brown crumbs showing.
What is the best paint, or anti-corrosion sealant.
Cheers, Leigh
