    Rust. and shit.

    is there a quick and hoary way to stop rust getting worse?

    the wagon is sitting in a paddock, so obviously the least ideal place. the solution needs to be durable, elsewise i'd'a just sprayed it with diesel and oil. the rust is quite severe (like, gone right through the panels)
    will pa10 hack it?
    is there some other jenius stuff that you guys know about? (or, anyone wanna buy it?)

    Pa 10 will attract moisture if left un painted. Fish oil would be best I reckon. but thats only going to slow it down a bit, needs cut out or painted with blackguard or similar.

    Back in my high school days (so not too long ago) I got me a cheap Daewoo (before you slag me off it was $2000 for a 10 year old car. And still unbelievably shit).

    The bonnet was rusting pretty bad so we attacked it with fish oil. It never got any worse and we didn't cut any of it out (the WOF guys would of seen it if we flaked off any of the paint).

    Go nuts on the fish oil. Drown that rust in it

    Fish oil is cheaper than rust converter at least. Your could paint it with por or similar but would be expensive.

    if i had the money id be doing it properlike.

    The reason its rusting was a shocking lack of prep by the last muppet to paint it. Also, they dont seem to have heard of bog =s

    Most primers and shit will actually soak up moisture if not finished of with top coat and clear, which leaves things alot worse than it was.

    no worries with fish oil
    blackguard however is just acrylic roof paint......
    Opinions are like arseholes: Everybody has got one, but that doesn't mean you got to air it in public all the time....
