Welcome! And id be interested to hear more about chassis protection if anyone has any insight too

[Ian Podmore]

In nearly 30 years I've never applied any chassis protection apart from localised touch up. I've only repainted the front and rear wishbones a number of times.

I am affraid that outside visible rust is nothing compared to what is going on Inside chassis (and wishbone etc ) profiles. When i have any rivets off etc access to Inside profiles always spray there Inside some protestant tectyl etc with long tube and mist . And NO contact with salt on roads .

Outside is easy to see and clean and paint . Inside is issue. 

Below is wishbone bracket snap off. Outside was fine powercoat no rust. But when repairing - this thin 1 or 1.5 silly profile it was welded to..  rust.
