Waxoyl and similar

[ethel]

As I hopefully won't need to do any more chassis welding for a couple of years I thought I'd fill the box sections with waxoyl/dinitrol/etc.

Many years ago when I first bought a waxoyl kit, the box section extension 'nozzle' was a nail stuffed in the end of a tube and the gloop came out very unevenly. Looking in HalfordsI see it's still the same:X. Can anyone recommend a good kit with a decent spray pattern that'll cover all sides inside a box?

Thanks, John.

If you have a compressor, you can get a proper kit like a spray gun with all extensions, spray heads and tubes and I found it to be one of my best investments ever.

The gun screws onto the standard cans and, without the tubes, is also used to spray on underseal.

Have a search on eBay or Google (underseal spray gun or similar). They are not expensive.

That's what I did, £20 for a scutz's gun complete with cavity nozzle, you can then buy the litre cans of underseal which contain a mixture of underseal and waxoyl for less than £10 each. I did the whole car with 2 cans.

Bilt Hamber's Dynax S50 aerosol comes wih a 18" pipe and a brass sparay insert that makes the stuff go in four different directions.

I've just used it for the first time - it looks very promisingand, I think, far better than waxoyl.

I have bought one of those, just be careful that you don't pull it out of the cavity whilst pushing the button. It sprays a long way and tastes awful!!!

Bilt Hamber products are highly rated in tests.

Call me a smug ******* but (heavens knows why) I thought about that in advance and put a bit of tape around the tube about 2 inches before the end.

A sort of '2 inch warning'

Good to hear your comment about highly rated.

That's the one, it's superior stuff, and what's more, you can clean the tube out for re-use, I've still got 4 or 5 Waxoyl applicators that have blocked up despite my best efforts. Go for it. Martin.

When I first e-mailed them I got a reply from a Peter Hamber so I guess he is THE man !

Spoken to them a few times and they seem really helpful and believe in their products. Having said that, I guess only time will tell how good they really are!

I used one of these as I have a compressor.

Works well, you can have the whole garage covered in the stuff in no time .

Don't bother with waxoil though as it doesn't atomise very well at all.

Could you give me a contact for this stuff. No one local here seems to sell it. Looks like I'll have to get some shipped up from the South
