JDFrain 1 Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 if you can get it up on a set of ramps and spend a good few hours cleaning it down wire brush and knocking any rust spots back etc. then best method to put it on is sprayed with a machine covering absolutly everything john Quote Link to post Share on other sites

harddigging 42 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 good clean dont have to go as far as a wire brush its not paint. spray well underneath make sure you spray inside the chassie if theres no nautral holes to spray into drill some then spray inside, old engine oil is as good if your doing ewvery 12 month. id recomend schutz spray for inside the doors instead off waxoil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
booboo 0 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) One thing to remember is, to wrap your exhaust with newspaper. the last thing you want is to have waxoil melting on the exhaust. bb Edited January 28, 2009 by booboo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MikeTheDog 153 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Check with your local Nissa dealer but I think I'm right in saying that like all cars from the late eighties early nineties the Terrano is also galvanised! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
