I don’t have a compressor. I’ve seen the ads for “dynax UC” by Bilt Hamber or Corrolan” by Rustbuster after treating any rust area with Rustbuster’s FE 123 but haven’t bought any yet.
Is Rustbuster the same is Dinitrol?

Not sure.
Dinatrol has been used as a rustproofer in the north Sea oil rigs for 40 years according to the add blurb. It sprays well and covers generously but needs 90 psi air preasure for best results. I used economies of scale and baught 12 litres for £110. Have given the inside of the landrover chassis 2 very generous coats and 2 lighter coats on the outside, have sprayed body cavities generously and still have 8 litres left for underbody and the volvo .
Test areas on the volvo show it to stand up to Road abrasion very well but I would expect to have to respray every 3 or 4 years in high wear areas, mud flaps would hopefully extent that time. Just waiting for time and dry weather to do both the landrover and volvo. Want to do them at the same time as it's one mess to clean, though my gun gives very directable spray patern so very little waste.
