    Was out working on my LT35 last week(photos on Insta) started out sunny then as I was about to start welding I could see bad weather approaching in the distance. Set up everything and ‘cracked on’ ten minutes later started raining.. looked up at the sky it was still blue.. conscious every two or three seconds I was getting hit by the rain. In the end I only ‘packed up’ once and although I had a damp bit of cardboard to lie on I got two holes welded up. Would have done the third but ran out of mig wire. Rain didn’t stop play I was lucky that it looked worse than it actually was. Hoping to get the last hole done next time I’m home.. and the grass cut, and the broken limb on the beech tree that fell off last summer cut up, my Freelander transfer box rebuilt and turbo removed, assessed, … and a few other things. Top tip. Best not weld outside when it’s raining. That’s not my usual behaviour…

  • @PedroPlckle
    @PedroPlckle 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Hi Matt. FYI, That pitting WILL gradually turn back into rust in a couple of years, even after you've converted it with the best converter on the market (Dinitrol RC900). It is absolutely essential that you treat it with cavity wax after conversion. Choose any clear, beige, brown or any viscosity of Dinitrol cavity wax. ML, for example, is perfect for that application.

      @PedroPlckle 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I have 25 year's previous on rust proofing/conversion/prevention. Done my T4 to show condition. Learn about ONE brand - DINITROL. RC900 is the converter, then you need cavity wax over that - there are many viscosities - and depending on where it is, a final seal - e.g. 4941 Black. All cavity waxes and even the final 4941 (but less volume) contain the all-important CIC - Corrosion Inhibiting Compound. Read the spec sheets of the products and it'll all become clear. Do NOT use Hammerite/Finnegan's or anything that says Waxoyl on it. It's CRAP and actually poses a threat to your pride and joy.
