I had all my panels, frame and stuff soda blasted, it's friendly to the metal underneath.

I thought Ankor wax was something you put on after you'd got the rust off?

The soda blasting lookings good, did you do it yourself?

Ankor wax for the under body and ACF 50 for the rest.

I had it done by a firm near Biggin Hill, when I got it back they had also put on a coat of primer to protect the clean metal, highly reccommended
