Tetrosyl Underbody Seal

Post by **adritch** » Mon Apr 04, 2005 4:52 pm

Has anybody heard of this stuff before, and is it any good?
Saw it in the Machinemart catalogue (URL below). It seems to be quite a lot cheaper than Waxoyl/Dinitrol which makes me wonder if it will do the same job.

Any advice welcomed as if it is the same then I'll be getting some together with the schutz gun, ready for a fun weekend under the car........

Thanks,
Adam.

Underseal is the horibble black tarry stuff, that after a while dries up, cracks and the car starts rusting!

Its a lot cheaper for a reason, only reccomended on bodge MOT style patch welding to cover the sins!! ;)

For a better tough coating- use stonechip coating.

Remember that even the most expensive rust prevention is still a lot cheaper than the cure (i.e. lots of welding!) Waxoyle and dinitrol are both good.

Thanks John, I did think it was too cheap to be a good alternative to the recognised brands. Guess I'll be stocking up on Waxoyl then.

Thanks,
Adam.
