RUST! The arch enemy of motorhomes, camper vans and vehicles the world over. After recently being BOMBARDED with Lanolin Oil product adverts I try out of the NEWEST and CHEAPEST on the market on my van conversion.
A large part of the application process, like most things, is in the prep. To be honest this is difficult on the driveway on a van of this size, but in this video I wanted to see just how low effort applying lanolin chassis guard really is - I don't think you'll be surprised.
It's obvious this isn't setup to contend with other products such as Dynax, Por15, Dynatrol, WAR Wax etc. in terms of underbody protection - those products are good, have used them all on other cars, but they do require a bit more prep and often more equipment than most people have.
This is where these 'easy to use' lanolin oil products, such as Lanoguard and Chassis Guard, come into play. They are designed to require less preparation, and actually be easier to remove if you wanted to. We’ve used Buzzweld chassis guard, which is particularly cheap and claims to dry quicker than other lanolin oil based products, so I wanted to give it a try.
Must admit the other uses also had me thinking, but time will tell on those too.
Do let us know if you've used any similar products, this is a long term test and at the price we'd be happy if it helps keep the rust arrested or at bay in places where we have none. Time will tell and we will report back in 6 months or so.
Thanks for watching. Take care
