    get waxoil from frauds and litrelly paint it on. Its very cheap and applied by brush. a good barrier for anywhere on the underside of the car. just make sure you get it right in the crevices etc. whens the beast arriving then?

    Got to go to north wales for it :( looks a spunker though and a 1500quid valver should be a good un!
