I’m wondering what to use over powdercoat in hidden areas - waxoyl, dinitrol, what do people recommend and why?

Was the chassis 'hot zinc' sprayed prior to powder coating?

What are you wanting to acheive? To have a 'self healing' effect to cover chips and damage? To stop chips and damage? Not sure there is any wonder product. My leanings would be towards a protective application like ACF-50 that can be sprayed on and renewed.

You could splash out on numerous coats of ceramic 'wax' that is all the rage in detailing circles.

Whilst I had some parts galvanised, next time around I'm going to go triple passivating prior to paint.
Interesting - such a big decision!
