Dinitrol underbody protection. Anyone used this?

[AWo]

Yes, I do/did. I did the work on my own on our Hilux.

I've my car booked in at South West Rust Proofing. They've been very helpful and have said I can discuss the works with them when I arrive.

Can anyone advise what I need to ask them to do: For example, remove underbody protection, mask pipes and rubber connectors etc etc.

An underbody treatment ' scope' would be perfect if anyone has access to such a thing.

You should take a car to a workshop which knows all the places of that car modell to be protected, so nothing will be left out.

If they do a Grenadier for the first time, you need to figure that out on your own, maybe with an experienced guy from the work shop, what to protect.

You pay it and nect time other customers are better off, as the workshop guys got educated at your car.

There's quite a lot to think about.
What do you want treated? Chassis, underside of the body, axles, suspension components, underside of wings, cavity wax doors and boot etc etc.

You will need them to remove the guards under the fuel tank and the front and rear protection.

You will need them to mask the engine, transmission, wiring and exhaust. I expect this is automatically done.

The plastic wheel arch inners will need to come off (and the wheels if you want the suspension done.)

You need to discuss what will be done with the fuel and brake lines and specific areas such as the fuel filter and above the fuel tank.

You will also need to discuss if the vehicle is going off road a lot, what colour treatment and any holes they might need to make (and plug afterwards)
