Absolute props to you for dealing with this the right way. Too many videos show people spraying over rust with a rattle can of black paint and consider it "treated"
Cheers Cody.
@@RoadandRacetv where are the "member stay" pieces located exactly??
It is the first time I have seen them
The most complete video on rust removal on the internet! Congrats
Fantastic work and video quality too sir! Jobs like this are a true labor of love, but the outcome is worth it!
Thank you very much Tom. It's taken far longer than I imagined but it's been staisfying to do.
You inspired me to try this with my 350z..I plan on keeping it forever
Well done. That's one of those things you just feel comfortable with your car after completing. Another thing that would be helpful on a rusty car is a decent set of taps and dies to chase / clean threads. My son has a 2005 Touring that spend most of it's life in Ohio. I have yet to see underneath it, but the front sway bolts are stuck and the rear spring perch arm's eccentric bolt had seized up inside the control arm and broke during an alignment (the shop covered the labor, I ended up buying two new arms and all 4 of the eccentric bolts from SPC for a little more adjustment).
Brill! Just in time for doing my Clio trophy , look forward to further episodes
Already can't wait for the next vid!
Great Videos!! Cheers!
Lovely job mate! Well done!
Real labour of love with this proper rust prevention is a great Idea to preserve a modern classic, had an early ibiza gti in 2005 it was getting bad I wish I had known of this stuff it was full of filler in the end.
Very impressive Neil, you made that look easy! It’s good to see you making great use, and content in the new workshop. Looking forward to the next instalment 👍
Andy 🇬🇧
Thanks 👍
That was really a lot of work to do but man you did a great job! Result looks awesome to me. And the spray wax is surely a superb idea on top.
Already hyped for the next episode, didn't even expect such a zinc plating set to exist...
Keep up your good work and as always the best wishes from Bavaria
Thanks mate. Yes, much more work than I thought but i enjoyed doing it.
Another good one
Well done 👏🏽
excited to see how you get on with the plating next time.
Goood work! I love the Music too! The z is looking all new again !:)
Thank you! Cheers!
Well, what a surprise, another brilliant video! 😂 I've got a brilliant solution for rusting. I put my car in the garage when I bought it and I never take it out. Works really well.
Wow bro, you did the MOST! Fine Job👌
Thanks 😁
Thanks Neil for Covid lockdown vids' i hope i've spelt your name right great garage and now your car will last and sail through all MOTs'
Big thanks Richard, yes, that's the plan!
Nice work. I went through almost identical to this on my 97 Saab 9000 Aero last year. 3 Months off the road and did the whole chassis and all arches. Looked like new when i had finished. Its a lot of work, but should add another 15-20 years to the chassis potentially.
Good work yourself!
Looking good!
Great video, good work 👍🏼
Thank you! 👍
Great video. Looking forward to seeing the zincing I keep toying with the idea of tackling some bolts on my Elise
Thanks Pete.
Satisfying to watch
Great video, very informative, be good to revisit what you’ve done in years time and see how the products have stood up to the UK weather and roads 👍
Thanks, will do!
Great video! Very interesting. I live in new England so yeah rust is constant here, I may try some of this stuff on one or two of my fleet of shitboxes.
I need to do this to my 350z soon, I want to do the complete wheel arches instead of just the patches, can this be painted over the factory coating?
You sir are legendary.
Thanks mate!
Any chance of an update on this. Is there any rust coming back yet in the treated areas?
Great job. Shame you haven't got a shot blaster or have access to 1. So quick and easy on parts you have removed.
Some effort mate top job
Thanks 👍
English wet, fog and rain really takes a toll on your cars huh? Nice to see you are thorough in treating it.
Yes it does! Thanks mate.
Nice 😎
Did you get any drains in the garage floor.... ?
then you can wash rinse spray... under cover and it all goes away.....
try something called vatcan.. for treating rust
they used to use it on battleships.....

Hi great job dude! Was wondering would you do this on my 350z?? If it’s something you would consider please let me know so we can arrange something I.e price etc. Hope to hear from you 👍
Would be interesting to see long term results with this kit. I used the same kit on a Land Rover chassis and rust started to appear through the epoxy mastic within a few months.
That’s bad to hear. Will give an update in a few months
Nice work! Please paint all of the underside 👍
Hi Neil, Great work, any option to spray it on be much easier ?
Thanks, yes you can spray it on if you have the right equiptment.
why didn't you wash the underside first? so much dirt on it
It was clean. I think you're looking at the factory undercoat?
Random question - I presume you spray the areas hidden under the lift points once the cars all put back together? Amazing labour of love. Well done.
Thanks. Yes, will tackle the lifting points at the end.
Surprised you didn't find any holes! What happened to the rusted arch? Did you have to cut into it for this section? Did the rust come back through the treated areas or has this treatment definitely stopped it?
The arch repair will be done in the coming months. Will do a follow up video to see how the rust proofing is holding up.
Why not sandblast...?
Would painting everything with Por-15 undercoat be sufficient?
no, por15 sucks compared to epoxy. I've used both for rust repairs on cars. por15 is famed to take in moisture from existing rust, but this doesn't stop it spreading it in practice.
So, you have to do the full prep process Neil shows here for either por15 or epoxy in order to prevent new rust growth. and epoxy is far more durable than por15. trust me, save yourself the aggro later on.
That rust is going to come straight back! You didn't remove enough of it in the pitted areas. Epoxy mastic is so durable so you wont notice it creeping underneath.
I suppose part of his follow up should be to strip the support brace of mastic and see what was going on underneath
Restored metal is a beautiful sight.
Second!! Great effort Neil, but why not give the underside / wheel arches a damn good clean before hand with a pressure washer and some elbow grease? Or did I miss that?
You're unusually keen today...?
@@RoadandRacetv it just so happened you uploaded it as I came on TH-cam! I’ve just edited my comment - have a look!
Stage one is to clean with de-greaser!
@@RoadandRacetv I mean pressure wash / snowfoam and give it a proper clean - then remove anything left with degreaser? You haven’t painted over any dirt / dust have you?
I thought the same - Car Cleaning Guru would have had them arches gleaming before any degreasing took place.
Nice work!
Isn't that 40 Grid Disc a bit too agressive for just removing rust? I use these to grind down welds and stuff. I'd recommend a nylon-fiber disc - these remove paint and rust but leave healthy metal.
Also I would have pressure washed the underside before starting work on it.
Thanks mate. They recommend 80 grit but I got better results with a 40. Tried a Nylon-fiber, they are good but they are so expensive compared to a flap disc.
Wowza
If I may ask, why not sand blasting?
That would be ideal but I don’t own one.
The music made this a tough watch! 🤯
Something calmer would be better.
I am lazy, I bring my cars to Dinitrol, they are steamwashed , dried and then put in a thick layer of grease, but this is much more satisfying and you do not have to deal with dirty hands when working on the car later on because everything is covered with the stuff.
How long did you have to wait between the stages?
Degreasing, no wait. De-salt, 15 mins. Rust conversion, 60 mins
Lovely Jubbly video, if it was only done at that speed wouldn't it be great.
I know, right?
Wouldn't it be better to degrease the metal after the rust removal with the angle grinder? That way you'll wash away all the rust dust created by the grinder.
i noticed you weren't wearing any type of mask. Does this kit produce any type of harmful fumes?
You need a well ventilated room. If not then a suitable mask.
I would have thought the wire brushing would have come before the degreasing? It seems counter productive to degrease something (unless it was caked in grease) prior to removing most of that surface with abrasives? Lookslike you caught that car before things got too bad.
According to Rust Buster wire brushing pushing salts into the metal so you need to de-salt first.
Wow, having lived and lived in the UK until the 70s I know how 70s cars corroded in the UK winters but I am surprised to see even modern cars corroding so quickly. I left the UK for New Zealand in the 70s and I have lived in Perth Australia for 30 years, so I have hardly seen a corroded car since. No salt on the roads over here.
I've been rust obsessed for years. what concerns me about rust treatments like your spray at the end is, the rust can give off its own gases which fuel the continuation of the process. only worse because the trapped gases create a concentrated environment for rust to occur unlike in the atmosphere if it's not sealed in. you may have escaped this if the part is totally free of any moisture.
I'll add, my ongoing experiment has been (of course) with power washing the chassis down the same day if it's been on salted roads but also spraying acf50 oil on it routinely multiple times a year. same age zed and only has surface rust on the brackets but none on the chassis. similar mileage.
Bring back the old music. 😂😎
Did you buy the products yourself?
@@SiGainey Thx! Must have missed the notice...
Does the converter turn the rust back into metal? I would expect it to turn the rust into something else...
@@Peter_A1466 no, the converter does not convert rust back to metal. It converts rust into a protective layer (presumably impenetrable for oxygen)
great video , shame about the highly annoying music.
They got this thing called a spray gun, it’s perfect for what you’re doing.
It’s a bit messy and most people don’t own one.
It's the only way your car will survive the world, it frustrates me when I see perfectly restorable cars get scrapped because "its work to do"
True.
This job won't last long!
