Get yourself a big can of waxoyl, a pump and gun, and pump her full of it :thumb: pay particular attention to the sills, insides of the doors, front cross member, rear chassis legs and rear arches. Also would be worth taking the headlights out and spraying round where they fit with an aerosol of waxoyl too
