    Did that to my other waka. Ok for stonechips, but big bits Still rusty.
    The Wurth equivalent worked real well on a fix-up-and-sell RG150 I had. Even matched the colour of the paint on the frame!

    The good news is if the chrome is getting a tad rusty you can give it the aluminum foil and water treatment,miraculous it is.
    I was rejuvenating some of the Eldorado bits today.

    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?)
    PA10 has value only as a temporary holding primer over prepped steel, prior to priming properly with a genuine anticorrosive.

    Single pack zinc, such as the CR based rattle can types, are also only usefull as a temporary measure, and have the added problem of topcoat saponification if enamel based topcoat is used, weather it is single pack or two pack.

    For any zinc to work as a cathodic protection system, it must have clean steel for the electron flow, to enable the electrical reation that creats the sacrificial action of the zinc. FE, Ferrus Oxide (RUST) will block the reation, and is by nature porous so also provides no protection from moisture, weather immersion service or moisture vapour transfer.

    Use an MIO epoxy over hand prepped steel, at at least 125um film thickness.(minimum). Surface tolerant and resistant to abrasion, water immersion and with minimal prep will accept a wide range of topcoat options, but will provide long term protection by itself in most environments, other than severe geothermal or marine corrosive environments

    Two major NZ suppliers of genuine protective coatings are: Axzo Nobel and Altex Devoe

    Dig a hole, put fish remains in then plant a tree, or other plant type.
