I too would be interested the out come of this thread and all I can say is “Don’t forget the inside of the welded sections where the oil has burnt off”

Bits of you chassis is box section and if you have welded anything to this you would have burnt off any oil / protection there (it gets hot on both sides you know)
I suspect that everyone will suggest Waxoil.
A real messy job

Ps
I DON'T suggest drilling holes in your chassis but a hole can usually be found somewhere

Only joshing old bean, waxoyl is about the best bet I reckon. It's low cost and if you do the job over a cheap tarp you shouldn't leave a mess. Once it's on, best leave it to "go off" for a couple of days then it shouldn't drip with the heat from the exhaust.
