can you get silver waxoyl???? or something like it??

Not to my knowledge it is normally clear or black. Shutz comes in grey, black or clear but is used as underseal.

I wonder as my arches (inner) are silver and i was planning on cleaning them tommorow, well 1 at a time so not necessarily them but at least 1 , but I wanted to put something back over the clean areas, is the clear really clear?

If you clean them properly you could always wax it and keep on top of it

yes sean I could couldnt i, so silver waxoyly or something like it anyone?????

Hi

Shutz also used to come in white.....imagine white inner arches lol....forever to keep them clean....

All the best Brett

Silver Hammerite, (smooth) maybe?

+1

isnt there any silver stonechip paint available? like the stuff on the sills of the 944? thing is the arches are 27 years old and I know once I get in there it will be a case of some exposed metal which I do want to cover up.

Duncan Malloch, former RAF missle mechanic, former NE RO and former Club Secretary had a White 944 that he always WAXED the inner arches. He once had some paintwork sprayed on the car and the sprayer painted inside the arches black. He made them repray the ineer arches white.

Maybe it was a habit something he picked up at fortress Falkland? He was not so fussy with his Red 964 or his Yellow 993.

OK this is why I wanted to do the work

five hours later :



was it worth it???

you cant even see it is done when the wheel is back in.

did the arches, rubbed down all the trailing arms etc and satin blacked them whilst I was in there, also cleaned the oil cooler rad and painted that as well !!!!!

If it carries on like this with the rain i will get one arch done between now and christmas

You know its done and can sleepy sound with knowledge of a job well done.
Its your baby so of course its worth it.

I am very pleased with it, did the underside with black waxoyl a month or so ago, the arches had silver paint in them so i will keep it that way, you couldnt see the silver when I started though. Nice to de rust the front suspension parts including painting the strut nice and black again.

why do the discs look rusty so quickly????? they were ok on friday.

did another 2 today, very happy
