    Andy, i think its rust treatment gel. Slap it on, leave it to eat at the rust then i'm guessing wipe off to leave clean fresh metal. Paint/prime to stop rust returning.

    Oh the only fault with it is any left on the paint causes paint not to stick. Best of doing it one day then painting next.

    Good read chap.

    On another note, youve fitted that Anti Fire very wrong. Note, its very easy to obtain more jets for it aswell, your not just limited to 2. On our rally cars we run 2 in the bay, 2 in cockpit & 1 down onto tank/pump.

    Cheers Scott.
    Mike whats wrong with it as I followed instructions so assumed it would be ok. I'm not bothering with cockpit jets as 'research' showed me that the insed doesn't go up on my car. Also I'll have a seperate handheld if the wrongun should occur inside the cockpit.

    No, the jet in the engine bay is in a very comprimising position. I.E. Pointing upward.

    How do you put a fire out with a fire extinguisher? You point & AIM AT BASE Re-route the alloy tube & reposition the jet. In all honesty, you want at minimum of 2 in the bay area.

    You can have as many fire extinguishers as you like. But there not gonna work effectivly if there not used as intended are they
