Just wondered if anyone here had tried this? Is it worth doing?

tried it on my 27 year old mini about 10 years ago it just leaked out of all the holes where it had already rotted

Does anyone even keep cars long enough these days to need waxoyling? Freelander 2 TD4 Auto, SE, Narvik Black, Alpaca full leather, Rear Headrest Entertainment System, 6 CD, 18 HSE Wheels, Privicy tints

It certainly won't hurt, but the way they produce cars these days, it's not often you see a rusty one, so is it really worth it? Gone are the days of the Datsun  We Don't Care About Pot Holes !!

Those were the days..... My first car was a Datsun 120Y. Used almost as much oil as petrol, overheated if I went for more than 10 miles and was held together with P38!!

Ah the 120Y. Wasn't that the "Sunny"? Sort of a fastback pretend coupe? We Don't Care About Pot Holes !!

I think they named it the "Sunny" later.

The extra weight of the Waxoyl would probably 'ruin' the fuel economy!

A very good product, used it on my Mk 2 Escort RS2000 in 1979, I thinned it slightly with "duck oil" and sprayed it on. Care had to be taken not to block door drain holes with thick wax if doing doors from inside. We did many customers cars with this and being a seaside town this certainly slowed down the evil rust.
Today I don't think there is any point as modern vehicles are very well protected. It may also invalidate anti corrossion warranty.
Corrossion is very seldom a factor in MOT's now and is most often on panels that have had a poor quality repair. All FL2's (3) Gone
2011 Mercedes C180 CGI Gone
FL2 GS Auto SD with heated leather, factory tints, alloy spare and a few other bits.

Waxoyl took me back, but "Duck Oil" takes me back even farther. God I feel old.  We Don't Care About Pot Holes !!
