Good to know there are still places that do this process. I don't know if we can throw any business your way, after all, we drive Volvo's.

Don't be so sure Bob. Don't forget that the improvements in corrosion resistance are fairly recent. There are plenty of the older cars that need rust proofing. My 1800s will be getting a going over when the weather warms up a bit more. It's just a pity this lot are too far away for me.

Quite right Andrew, 80's and 90's Volvos are pretty good, my personal ownership experience being limited to the 140 I now own and the 240 estates I have had in the past. However we appear to be taking a backwards step regarding corrosion resistance. All manufacturers are now using water based paint systems that are inferior to the old two pack poly paints, just ask your average Merc E class owner. We are going to see alot more rusty cars on the road (or in the breakers yard) in the next few years.

I'm very interested in this. I've already lost two 340s to the dreaded tinworm, yet can't seem to find anyone local who will undertake rustproofing.
Hope to be in touch with you in the summer. |
