Under-sealing
Hi Andy, yes I'd used them earlier in the year to do my Maestro (and a good job they did).
Only thing is that getting to them for me is a bit of a trek by trains (and would require me taking time off work), so hoped for somewhere nearer Andrew

Jagutech Hessle - in this weather they keep it for 4 days - 2/3 days on ramps with heaters to dry the underside out then the underseal - price has gone up but not much.

I've just had mine done, due to illness couldn't get it done myself but needed it doing before another winter attack on rear suspension
My garage dried it cleared surface rust primed then used wax oil underseal and is now sitting in heated garage so can't see a problem. We have not had any road salt at all yet so surely is better than waiting until spring? |

I had mine done with the more unconventional Krown rustrproofing in Birmingham. I shall report back after winter but so far so good. It wont last as long as waxoyl but leaves the underside visible which I like. Its also very easy to apply yourself for the top ups without mess and is enviromentally friendly.
Time will tell! |

I understand you have already had your car done, however the problem being Martin, how would Andrew get his car to be treated without driving it on salted roads?
If the temperature has dropped below 6 degrees C, anywhere in the local area, the roads will have been treated with road salt. The time to apply rust treatment is in the warm summer months, not in winter. Why does it matter so much?, because by trapping salty water in panel seams with cavity waxes, or underseal will result in hugely accelerated corrosion, and will be almost impossible to rectify.
