Hello everyone,
Mine is coming up to 2 months and Zagato did a brilliant job with the Dinitrol treatment when it was just 1 week old Very Happy
I was going over the hinges, bolts and revets with ACF-50 today and noticed these two areas when I took a look inside.
Is there anything I can apply to stop the rust and get it back to looking new?
Thanks in advance for your comments!

Zagato is only a short trip away around the bottom of the M25. I got the supplying dealer in Canterbury to Waxoyl mine from new. but they weren't keen and it wasn't a very good job.

Thank you for replying, I asked them too, but sent me to a local garage who were going to jet wash then do it, don't think it would be dry enough to apply.

Hello APK

They all do that Sir... Exclamation

I used the FE123 to convert the rust to a hard 'stable' layer prior to painting, you actually need the rust
for this to work, but that shouldn't be an issue as this special attention to material selection comes as
standard on the Puma Engine... Shocked

I have yet to finish mine off, I just roamed around the engine bay and carefully 'converted' all that was there...
I did this last summer and it's still looks like these photos, when it warms up a little further I'll finish off with
some enamel or VHT paint (stove black)

And is the original poster of this thread.

Once my V8 is back on the road, I'll be giving him a call. Last time I asked, there was quite a long lead time.

Thank you X4SKP

Looks great. Keen to know your thoughts on how long you expect the converter to last with the engine heat.
Also, are there any other areas to be mindful of?

Hello kingsley,
Zagato/Chris did an excellent job with my Defender in Jan. His explanation of the process and advice before / after the Dinitrol process was (and still is) much appreciated. Toughest part was leaving it at his place to dry for a week (it was raining). He is highly recommended.

Suggest dropping him a PM.

Zagato did mine the right way this was after the supplying dealer said they had done the whole vehicle and it was quite laughable. I would recommend Zag without any hesitation whatsoever.
