Chap's,

I'm buying a new car next year and i want to get it rust protected with dinitrol,

Been looking at a few places to get it done,Has anyone have experience with rustmaster or anyone else?, I asked rustmaster about doing my car and they said they can do it in 4 hour's, Every other wax oyl centre i asked said it would take a couple of day's,
I want the best Treatment for my car,

Anyone have any exprenice or recommend any wax oyl centre's?,

Decision decision,

When you say new do you mean just made or new to you? If the former, be careful that you do not invalidate any manufacturer's anticorrosion warranty. - Just a thought!

In that case there's really no reason for you to worry about corrosion and additional treatments. The manufacturer's anti-corrosion warranty will be quite long and they will honour this (provided you have it inspected by a dealer annually).

If you plan to keep it longer than the warranty, then get additional anti-corrosion after the final inspection.

Modern anti-corrosion protection is incredibly good. Remember these terribly rusty Fords? It all stopped after about 1997. I've never seen a rusty Ka for example.
