wax oil

Any body got any ideas of companies that wax oil cars.

I want the underneath of my landy doing and can only find a company in west sussex, just a little too far from leicestershire. I have had it mooted that a company possibly called "before and After" is about somewhere but cannot find a thing.

It has just flown through its mot today, Very Happy

thanks P. Very Happy

Recent thread on D3side re that subject: http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic59544.html?highlight=Waxoyl

Fair amount of bad press for the company you mentioned, just do a bit of googling. Thumbs Up

Thanks DSL Thumbs Up

have read the thread and mmm. I me thinks more hunting. I have a lovely example of a D3 and it gets detailed every week without fail after pressure washing most of Leicestershire off it.
It does have localized patches of surface rust around the mountings etc. I do not fancy undersealing it as I have done this before many years ago.

Thank for the info

Try a local indy Land Rover garage.... Mine did my old 110 for about £200

That is pressure wash, let it dry overnight and waxoil....

I would do it in hot weather also to allow drying and a bit of flow to the waxoil......

Thumbs Up thank you Very Happy

We have a little one a few miles away, they do manily landys but are not geared up for anything over a D2, they shuddered when I asked them if they were able to look after my D3. They replied they would have a go, but did not have any plug in and play fault finders Shocked Shocked

I have had a couple of problems with it as I have said, last one being the tow bar being pinched from Northampton, the tow bar has probably done the rounds on ebay by now.

Police responded well.

Asked if I would like counseling. Laughing Laughing Laughing (some would say yes).

I would hate the body work to be damaged in any way and the thread does make you cringe a lot, Crying or Very sad

What is the difference to trade than over the counter, is it thicker??

I have used wax oil before on the insides of boat hulls, just wondering if there is much of a difference and would it be worth applying localized coats of owatrol (oil based steel and wood primer, drying time for steel 12 hrs ) before, did you do any remedial work before yours went in?
