Title: Car Underbody Resealing
Post by: markrl on 12 July 2007, 01:03:12
Since the old Omega’s last MOT which was passed with an advisory notice re rust on the nearside chassis leg (subsequently repaired for £30 cash by the local MG/Spitfire classic restoration workshop) I’ve been thinking about getting the whole underside resealed as the under body protection generally is looking somewhat passed its best.
However there does not seem to be any longer an abundance of garages specialising in this line of work anywhere. I found only a handful searching the internet and none exactly local. Anybody out there had their Miggy under body resealed and could anybody recommend anywhere. I think this is definitely a job for leaving to a garage with the professional equipment for blasting off all the dirt before a thorough reseal, if only I could find somewhere. Anybody out there got any experience of this as I think the top shiny part of the car is a lot better then the horrors lurking beneath  ;D

i found when i re-undersealed mine the chassis that came down from front wheel arch to the front floor was a bit scabby cleaned it up with a wire brush and re sealed it no probs,and did under wheel archs at the same time.floor seal was spot on :y :y :y

I came across a guy who was starting up in business doing this. Damned if I can remember any details though  :-/

If it comes back to me I'll get back to you.
