Hi there,

I am wanting to give the car a going over this summer and that includes treatment to prevent future and minor cosmetic rust underneath/in wheelarches.

My plan is to remove arch liners and give everything a really good clean then get in there with some suitable coloured hammerite. What I want to know is does hammerite require a metal surface to hold on to or will it also stick fine to existing paint (as long as totally clean)? Don't want it all flaking off. I wanted to fully brush each wheelarch and then waxoyl or similar.

Opinions appreciated.

Everyone seems to rave about POR-15. I'm planning to use some on my arches shortly...
