Dinitrol Specialists
Hi Guy's... Just looking for recommendations on who to get to do the 110. I had the 110 originally done at the dealers just on 3 years ago, But I'm not sure what they used?... However having just crawled underneath the old girl to change the springs over, I've noticed that some things are starting to go rusty and I can see parts that haven't been covered right from the off...
Not wanting to go back to the dealers, I'm looking for companies (or even private individuals) who could clean her up and re apply some underbody protection...
I'm happy to travel a bit (I'd love to get Zagato to do it)... However that would be a bit far... I'm based near Dollar in Scotland, and I'm happy to travel up or down to get a good job done properly... (say 4hrs max ish).. So down as far as Nottingham maybe..
If you can post pics and details that'd be great..

Cheers

Hi MP,

I asked the same myself a wee while back and a number of people have recommended FlatDog in Gainsborough in Lincs. Not sure if this is too far for you though.

Yep was Ł500 for our 90. Including absolutely everywhere you could possibly think to put Dinitrol. Might be a bit more for a dirtier car or a 110 etc... Cheers, David

Has anyone got any experience with "ultimate"?
I don't think I have heard of them before having read quite a few threads about dinitrol etc- but on dinitrol website they seem to have any many centres as all the rest put together. There is a branch close to me at Sheffield.

Cheers

I clicked through a couple and their own websites only mention waxoyl which i thought was a little strange and more than off putting.

I'd be interested how they can do it in 6hours. When I did mine, I thoroughly washed/scrubbed the chassis inside & out.

I then left it a good week or more to dry out.

Would think that it needs a while to dry out before the Dinitrol is applied, unless they have an oven or some such to dry the vehicle quickly.

Keen to know how they do it in such a short time.

cheers
