Rust preventative treatment - new trailer

[PinHead]

lord forbid I agree with one P Webster - but...... go the tectyl for the initial prep, but more importantly mix up some linseed oil and kerosene and spray it on moving parts etc after every trip -

Either that or buy shares in inox.

P.S. Pinhead dunks his reels so don't listen to him any more about maintenance-

Had to do it Greg

what else does the good ol' Alvey need other than the occassional dunking ??

Why would you want to use "Kero" it's the main ingrediant in Degreaser. I am sure he wants to protect it not clean it

Thanks Garry, that cuts down on the reading.
Say's it dries to an ambor colour does that look okay.

it does go amber, just like me favourite drop and well....it looks shithouse ugly trailers don't get stolen!! it has somthing built into it that makes it creep. i thought bullshit. i sprayed the bottom inside door on my old hilux, bugger me dead over a couple of months, it had creeped 3/4 the way up the door!! it has been said but use tectyl, its the best i've found anyway!

cheers

g'day spaniard king,

dunno.

I used it after every trip on the cruise craft trailer - the kero seems to thin the previous layer of linseed and binds the new stuff to it...
It also penetrated seized nuts etc, and rejuvenated the trailer after the last owners - give it a hose and leave it - maint regime.

Like I said in the first post - not my idea it's Webster's, I gave it a go with good results.
