using a sealer like fish oil or wax wont stop rustit will only trap it in the panel you need to use a good thin viscossity rust converter and then you can seal it  hope that helps guys  cheers neil

iv been using a 3m product that i got from an auto paint supply shop its been good so far, but i was worried about poring it into the panel crevis as it its a converter as well as disolver and says to rinse it of after conversion and as u can imagin i cant . So du you reckon safe to por in leave for 24hrs then hit it with fish oil?

I would use it Craig but make sure it dries before the next step. I"ve  been using rainex (recomended by Farrace Auto Rust). then finishing the panel to completion(outside) once done I will then use a penetrol/rainex solution to get into all the tight spots  this is amazing stuff apparently, again letting this dry before  i then fill with a cavity wax. just found this on the web

dano, is that rannex, or rainex?
rannex is a rust convertor, rainex is a windscreen product to make water flow off the windscreen faster.

my favourite anti rust product - and i used many on the van - was DE-OX-IT, worked a treat, and fast too
