on the subject of waxoiling...

In regards to what Boatbuilder is intending, could you use all those on anything underneath that is easily paintable?

And when should you be looking to do all this - haven't got the free time for about month - will i have missed the boat?

Yes of course, wire brush scrape do whatever you can/want/will/able then treat rust as with vactan or red lead whetever, just make sure its dry before applying anything

Bilt-Hamber Labs (Billericay) Dynax S-50 cavity wax

B-HL products are top notch. Their Dynax cavity wax is notable for being supplied in a useful DIY format, large aerosol with a 360 degree 2ft long wand. This is supposed to pentetrate into and behind rust, water and dirt that cannot be removed, and stay there, self-healing, like some of the Dinitrol waxes. Of course, make as good an effort as possible to rattle & blast or vacuum out as much as possible.

£12-95 for a large (750ml) aerosol seem pretty reasonable value, as with this system it gets to the places others might not?
