Excellent review. It is now Dec 2024 and both products (Lanoguard and the Buzzweld) have increased in price by about 30% already. However I have bought 5 litres from Buzzweld as I have more than one car to spray. Thanks again for the video.
No problem. We’ve got quite a bit left so will reapply soon. In most places it still looks good to be honest and that’s after a fair amount of miles (around 4,000) and rain.
O the innuendoes in that vlog could have had field day 😂😂😂 but been family channel restrained myself. Excellent vlog very informative. Take care have fabulous week. ❤
Good job Rich.Very wise to rust treat underneath.Will save you a whole pile of money in the future at MOT time where it fails beceause of corrosion.I had my car done recently. I cheated though and paid someone to do it lol
Thanks Ian. Yeah it’ll be interesting to see what the arches are like in particular. Will be keeping an eye for sure on the three we’ve actually worked on.
Interesting to see how you get on with the product over time, I’ve not used either but remember my father having in the past (1971), a mini 1275 GT treated by Zeibart. Seemed to ‘add’ some soundproofing to panels and did appear to work at least compared to a friend’s untreated mini which seemed to do its best to rust over the 4 1/2 years they both owned them from new. 👍
Ah good stuff in its day. Apparently BMC used to store bare shells in lanolin before being dipped and painted. Rover just used to leave them Out in the rain 😆.
@WanderbusAdventures we love the channel 👍 keep the content coming, regarding rust prevention, I use Lowe rust paint, complete rust protection seems to do a good job.
Hey Sorin, was under there the other day and fair play its holding up well in most places. I need to get it cleaned and reapplied, so will give that a go when time allows. May do a wider video on this and how other things have worked on the bus as we have some other questions pop up every now and then.
Was under there on the weekend fitting some new gizmos and it looks to have stayed in place pretty well. I will likely do a bit of an update as part of another video, but impressed with how it has held up on the front chassis and arches.
Great question. I haven’t as yet. When i got them fixed up they were sprayed with Gravitex and Bilt Hambers UB on the blue one. I used UC on the yellow one as the underside is yellow and pristine - I used S50 on the box sections. Would I use it on the minis now? Yes in conjunction I think, this lanogaurd seems to creep in more readily and is cleaner to use on the drive etc. it’s also a lot cheaper - is it better? No, and I don’t think it’s designed or supposed to provide the longevity of other products. That said it’s held up well on the van and should be easy to wash down and reapply.
😂 Can clean the dirtiest politition 😂 you win the Internet this week Rich. Another similar product to look at that claims to last upto 5 years is Corrolan from rust buster. I've used it and so far prefer it to lanoguard
Seen a lot of videos about lanolin lately. Too bad it seems that there isn't anyone selling it in Finland. I've only found some cosmetic, health and clothing products. The closest thing to "bulk" lanolin I've found has been a 200 gram glass jar with 100% lanolin. The market is saturated with all kinds of petroleum products and other wax stuff, but lanolin? No go.
Oh really! Gap in the market perhaps for one of these companies. Buzzweld are a local company to us, so we often try their stuff if we can. Not that they thank us 😆. I’m sat next to the van now and in the front wheel arch it looks good still. Will give it a good wash end of summer and see how it’s faired.
@@WanderbusAdventures Woolwax, Corrolan and now the Buzzweld are brands that I've seen in TH-cam (in maybe a few months time in total). Originally stumbled upon Corrolan. Some UK based dude made a "DIY" version with the two Corrolan products, Pure and Turbo thinner. Seen a few very informative rust proofing videos since. And as I bought a cheap ass Mazda and brought it back to life with pretty idiotic amount of money ("new" engine, new clutch, dmf + other bits), I thought I have to try my best to keep it in some kind of shape because the body is still pretty OK looking. Already has 391 000 km... One older guy I talked with years ago swore by rapeseed oil. He talked about some company that did sandblasting in a hall, constructed from steel and always had problems with the beams rusting. As I understood, the older guy tipped someone in the company that they should treat the beams with rapeseed oil. He told me that afterwards the problems were gone. He told me that rapeseed oil hardens a bit with age and becomes very hard to remove. He also told me that the ultimate cocktail is supposedly pine tar mixed with rapeseed oil, but mixing the two together calls for high heat, lots of stirring and time.
I also have been searching in Finland, I found a company claiming to be an agent for Fluid Film, but they dont have an online shop karkitarvike and no other source for Lanolin. fluid film from a company in Germany is about 100 euro for 5 l..
Scrape flaking paint off with a chisel edge sharpened file (super hard steel). Don't wire brush. Sould desroying waste of time. Spray rust with FERTAN. Best rust killer ever!! Leave 24 hrs. NOW coat with lanolin or wax. (Wax is terrible to use unless you have a proper COMPRESSOR)
Great tips, since this video actually discovered Fertan from a friend who shot blasts cars and parts for a living. He describes it as chemical shot blasting and uses it himself for parts that are difficult to reach, would warp etc. Swears by it.
Very Detailed demo of the process 🦾. I was looking to get fluid film because it doesn't dry out at all, and it creeps everywhere. i wander how it compares to this type, my first guess, the polymerization helps to keep it from washing off . My guess this is a mixture of Lanolin, some sort of solvent and boiled linseed oil. the price seams much better than the other products in the market for sure.
Thank you, I reckon you're right but have not used Fluid film. I have used other products like Bilt Hambers S50, which is ace but needs way more prep to ensure you don't make a mess. They must have mixed it with something as the reaction is exothermic, so possibly. I will give the van a good wash before autumn and see how it is holding up.
@@WanderbusAdventures I just checked they don't ship out to Europe. I would have given this a try . Really like the idea of the combination of the 2 oils . May be can bring some in my check-in luggage 😂. Looking forward to your update . You have some good content 👌

Ha! Thanks mate, a lot of them were cut out too. Have a great week 🚐🚐🚐
Dave watched, now I've watched, because this is something we need to do on Mavis and Tilds camper..
Not that I'll be doing it tho😂
Ah thanks guys. Definitely worth considering something for your lovely vans before winter 🥶. Hope you’re doing well 🚐🚙❤️

Thanks Donnie. That’s a wise choice to be fair 😊.
Have you got an update 4 months later?
Nice job! Time will tell in 3-6 months of normal use if it’s any good, hope so 😎👍🏻

Out in the rain 😆.
Will be looking at something like this on my vario… when I eventually get started!
Sounds good. Will you be taking the floor up?
Well done on the manscaping 👏 hopefully the rust doesn't come back as fast as the nose hairs 🤣
Great video, fellow vario owner 👍
Ha. It’s got a good chance, you sprout them faster the older you get.

ah brill, will check that out@@pjtheboatguy1239
Great vlog so informative.
You can definitely help us with ours 😉
Thanks guys. We can get the kids on the case
Any update on how it held up ?

No problem. Thanks 😊
Any update as to how it has faired after 8 months?😀
Was under there on the weekend fitting some new gizmos and it looks to have stayed in place pretty well. I will likely do a bit of an update as part of another video, but impressed with how it has held up on the front chassis and arches.
@@WanderbusAdventuresJust done mine with a Schultz gun and compressor so will be interested to see how yours has gotten on at the next update
