please forgive me as i know this kind of thing has been coverd before, but has not 100% pointed me in one direction or another!

so I've just picked up my first hilux, and i would love to keep her in as good condition as i can manage. The chassis appears to never have been welded, nor painted or wax oiled. its a 98' mk4 so its 22 years old and does have a lot of surface rust underneath and on all the suspension, steering and brake components but i don't think its much more than a few mm deep. i would like to halt the rusting process before it gets bad, and i've been recommended this -https://aquasteel.co.uk/ , it looks promising but i cant seem to find independent reviews of people using it all over a cars chassis, along with all the other gubbins under the truck. any advice or opinion welcome. thanks.

Thanks for the feedback 👍 it seems to be bit of a mine filed as to what’s good or not! If you can pop on in a few days and let me know how it seems to have set. Are you planning on overpainting it or leaving it as is?

Thanks
