Keiths Nova Turbo build

[nova_niek]

Next up is Dinitrol 447 underseal, then back home so I can save hard for paint.

Keith, I found the below comment on landrovernet.com, surely you have read yourself up on this subject? If not, then I hope this is useful info. Not clued up on Dinitrol products myself so I could be misinformed here.

Internal, you can use DINRC800,this will convert the rust to a hard, stable organic compound.
External I would apply a very thin coat of ML3125 cavity wax to the chassis as it contains rust inhibitors and will act as undercoat for the underbody wax 4941(black) or 4942(brown)
For wheel arches and high abrasion areas then use 447 in place of 4941,4942 but still apply the ML3125 first.

Thats all the repairs complete, all underside seams sealed, and Dinitrol stone chip applied.


Collected the car from William this morning. Got it home and fitted the boot-lid & doors. Time to get the head down now and save for the paint job!

Also this weekend, I had a friend help strip the timing belt off so we could upgrade the oil pump using SBD parts. Then refit. And this afternoon I refitted the sump.

Media blasted, glass/soda will be best.

Looking great. Make sure you dont put your hands on the bare bits, as the salt in your sweat can be a killer.

[Andy]

Hahaha are you fukkin serious?!!! Whatever next?!! "Dont buy ready salted crisps as they may leak out?!"

[Iain]

Andy just cos your paint doesn't stay on beyond corner 1 doesn't mean others shouldn't want perfection

If youre sweating to the point youre corroding steel then the corrosion would be the least of ones worries
anyway rubbings racing.plus i apply it very thin to keep weight down
