Thing is, I'm not too concerned about surface corrosion on the chassis.
It's the rusting of steering arm etc pictured above. I hoped for that stuff to be replaced rather than waxoiled....2022 P440e AB

With the nights drawing in and winter opportunities to do that sort of work approaching and less inviting- i set about 'doing' my 08 RRS yesterday afternoon and into the early hours of the evening. very satisfying, dealing with heavily corroded areas such as the tank-guard and side-step mounts. the diff casing had absolutely NO paint on it- and I applied copies stokes of black Hammerite- doing the chassis rails as I progressed back to forward. Lack of light and the bulb blowing on my halogen stopped the task but id say 2/3rds of the car is done now. i had an advisory on a corroded rear brake-pipe. i put rust neutraliser on it and a dab of hammerite.
satisfying feeling- its what we all did in the 60's/70's to our untreated Fords/Vauxhalls/BMC....
