solidifies over a couple of months. It also comes in aerosol, which is
water-thin and gets into cracks really well. Does it work? Ask me in 5
years, as I've treated the 2002's hood and trunk (notoriously nasty
rust-spots- worse than anything on the roadster) with it...

If anyone has had any experience with the 3M or the Waxoyl (have been reading
about it for years in Brit car mags), I would love to hear about it.
Had to drive the roadster for a couple of weeks with salt on the ground. It
does fine in snow, but I hate to get salt on it. It's now parked in the
shed, waiting for the next fairly warm (above freezing) day so I can wash it
off, then put it back in the shed for the rest of the winter. I would like
to have some protection during the winter so if I need it, I can take it out
without worrying so much.
The reason I had to drive it, was our 94 Cougar had a "small" fire under the
dash while driving it to work one day. The estimate was only $2750 to fix
it, but the insurance co. decided to total it and gave me a check for about
$9k so I bought a used Explorer. 4WD is close to a necessity around here
every now and then.
Anyway, ALL of my cars have fire extinguishers in them now......
