So, the Defender's gone away for undersealing....

Full Dinitrol protection. Not cheap, but cheaper than having to have it welded up and the associated costs of that....

Who else has had this done ?

lynall · Oct 2, 2016

Not many I wouldnt have thought they are all to tight

and will have done it themselves me included.

Mr S1 · Oct 2, 2016

I couldn't be done with the mess....I've got no way of heating the liquid up and my block paved driveway looks too nice to have covered in undersell. Rather pay someone else, get the job done properly by someone who does it for a living and not have to clear anything up.

ME. I got mine done at my local Land Rover dealership - they use Waxoyl and I suppose I've now opened up a discussion on what is the best solution to use, but I work for them as and when required so I got staff discount. Looks like a good job and like you I didn't want a load of mess as I'm renting a property at the moment awaiting the purchase of a suitable property.

Cheers for the reply chap

Not looking to start that debate, just interested to know who's had it done and what they thought. Either way Waxoyl or Dinitrol can only help preserve the car !

You don't need to heat Dinatrol , Its no where near as messy as Waxoyl but loads better.
P.S I did my own too

Mr S1 · Oct 2, 2016

Waxoyl's 'orrible stuff to work with....only ever did it once, that was enough ! Never used Dinitrol but wasn't prepared to mess about !

Got somebody else to put a Gav chassis under mine....so l feel smug!

The worst thing about normal chassis wax is working on the car months or even years later, the carp you get covered in is unreal!

Ps I forgot to say if you have a defender and a block paved driveway it wont stay clean for long

Yes, I hate getting covered with dirty waxoyl. Very hard to get off a boiler suit.

Main reason I always paint the outside, use chassis wax on the inside.

Oh I'm acutely aware of that already

that' why I don't want any more f****** mess on there !! Got three drip trays under it already, but *should* be getting the two front leaks sorted very soon. The transfer 'box I accept leaks so have a long drip tray for that and it'll be staying !

lynall · Oct 3, 2016

Good drip trays are the seed tray from notcutts etc approx 4 feet by 18 inches 2/3 inches deep, fill with some sand etc if you have cats you will need to cover the top with chicken wire!

Mr S1 · Oct 3, 2016

Exactly what I've got fella ! Cats aren't the problem, my bloody dog is ! Comes in with a sand beard more often than I'd like !
