Chassis POR15 treatment
Discussion
Picking up my Griff on Wednesday evening :spin: - can't wait, and thanks for the replies to previous questions already.
The car will be living on the drive (garage already occupied) and I want to use it all year round so job no.1 should be coating the accessible/vulnerable bits of chassis with POR15 I think. It has some surface rust, but it's dry and there's very little Waxoyl and grime needing removing first at least.
However, I don't really want to leave the car up on axle stands on the drive for ages while I do it outside so can anyone please recommend somewhere nearish to Warwick/Midlands that will be happy to do it for me? Rather easier with a ramp, me thinks!
Ta very much,
Ruari

With the greatest respect to all the commercial operators the only way to properly do the chassis is to get under and do it yourself. Obviously there is nothing technical involved but if you take it to a dealer chances are the” boy” will do it and the boy will be a lot less interested that you in doing it right. Assuming you don’t actually find any holes or other nasties it takes about a weekend a side and will make a mess on the drive and on you. The only problem area is the bit above the Diff which you can’t really do until the Diff is out. A good compromise is if you can “borrow” or hire the use of a local lift for the weekend which makes the job a whole lot easier
