Where to buy ACF50
As above really, where is the best place to buy and is it aerosol or paint on?

LR90 above has answered perfectly, I'd recommend the aerosol though.
It goes a long way really it's surprising.

Thanks for the link. Do I just spray everywhere or just the likely areas for corrosion?

Mainly likely areas such as door hinges, non SS standard bolt heads under cappings and so on.

It's safe on paint and clear so any over spray is fine but try and avoid it if you can as it isn't the easiest thing get off.

Buy a bottle of liquid and a pressure pump - that way you will be sure to get all the product out. Can't count the number of times I've thrown aerosols out because the propellant has run out but you can feel there's still product in the can. You can also put a bit on a rag and rub down a general area or even paint it into small gaps or areas.
