Can anyone give me advice on how to go about Waxoyling an MGB Roadster?
Would anyone recommend any product better than Waxoyle? I've heard that Bilt Hamber is very good, any comments? |

I used the Bilt Hamber stuff on my Range Rover about 3 years ago - no signs of rust, so guess it's doing the job! Its consitency is very similar to Dinitrol - dark, oily and much more liquid than Waxoyl.
One thing I would recommend, whichever product you use, is to get hold of a proper injection kit - the type you use with a compressor and the schultz type canisters. This will help you get a good even coverage inside the box sections and is soooo much better than the pump-up canister you get with the Waxoyl kits. |

What ever product you choose, this is where / how Ziebart used to recomend applying it to an a MGB. AS you can see doing it properly is more than just a quick blast !!
