dinitrol cavity wax
i've seen plenty of posts on here regarding dinitrol waxes, but which one am i supposed to use in places like door frames and the box sections down the edges of the bulkhead? DON'T PANIC

Just done mine last week. Filthy job but well worthwhile. Used 3125 cavity wax and 4941 underbody wax.

thanks norman, but the guide isn't really what i'm looking for. it appears to be a detailed guide on the application of acf-50 which after using it to protect my gs1200 adventure, i don't really rate the stuff. Sad DON'T PANIC

ACF is a bit sticky and dirt clingy for my liking but it has it's place.

IIRC 3125 internals and 4921 as your underseal.
You'll also need some rust cure, I used Kurust

I'd recommend the internal you choose brown and externally back do you can tell which is which.

There are some photos in 'my gallery' here somewhere.

Fished out the pic for you of what I used:

I'd recommend the following order:
Clean and dry chassis
Kurust application
Stonechip application. (Adds protection and soundproofing)
Internal wax application.
Finally underseal application.

Ensure brakes and exhaust are protected so mask up.

Make sure you over buy for what you need amount wise, so you get a good job done and you'll always use surplus.
I keep the 4921 permanently and spray new parts with it if changed over.

I assume your using Aerosol? If so if you need any advice as to how many cans you'll need let me know and I can read up my previous posts.

You'll find it a lot of work but very much well worth it!
