Before anyone says, I kow its a job you could do yourself but I just don't have the facilites to get the car up high enough. Is there anywere in the crawley or surronding area that can give the car a good clean, treat some surface rust and then give it a good underseal?

How much should I expect to spend?

Thanks

please dont use underseal! lol

nasty stuff, cracks and then rust gets in behind, waxoil it if you can, might be able to do it for you for a small price, as can get easy access to steamcleaner and ramps

as for the rust, ive got some industrial sized portions of that rust convertor stuff lol

i did mine last year, will be doin it next month

the only thing is when you do under a whole car, you need to ideally steam clean it off, and garage it to dry for a week (god knows how im gonna manage that this year! LMAO!) and then get it up and hit it with the stuff

Thanks for the advice and I might even have to take you up on that offer in the coming months.

I would expect to pay about 60 quid, as essentially it is 1.5 hours work max, it's just a waiting game

agree waxoiling is much better

i do detailing if you can get down my way ever and do it fairly cheap depends on the state of your paintwork its not easy to quote a job without looking last time i did that i ended up £40 out of pocket

if you use facebook serch for the group "back to best" these a few pics of my work
