Hi Robert,
I agree, I think it actually made things worse over the long run. I ended
up stripping the car for parts and selling off the rusted tub. I think
unless it's appied to a completely new vehicle, it will make things worse.
I've heard of cosmoline, but don't know what it is or where to get it.
Lanolin?... how did this turn into a sheep thread again... you mid-western
boys...'-)
Thanks
Gerard
