Rust Preventative

[wally57]

I have just replaced a rusted front chassis rail and sections of the fresh air duct at the top of one of my 260z 2+2's inner front guards. I want to treat both of these areas and the rest of the chassis rails with a rust preventative. Based on information included in  a previous post dated March last year I was intending to use Rust Bullet, but now have two questions. Is it still considered the best product available, and where can I get it. I can't access the Australian web site for Rust Bullet and according to the international web site the Australian head office is in my home town in NSW, but no one in town seems to have any idea where they might be located. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Have a look at "POR-15"

I've heard rustbullet is good.

I have decided to go with Rust Bullet but when I contacted the parent company to find out where I can get it locally they have told me there is no longer a rep for it in Australia and I will have to get it from some guy in Hong Kong.

Bugger that - just go POR15. You wont notice the difference.

Is the POR-15 ok to use to treat existing minor rust in areas that cannot be reached to clean it up first. The reason I was going for Rust Bullet was that I was told you don't have to clean the rust off the surface before coating, but you do with the POR-15. I bought a snake camera off the internet for $50.00 and have found a little bit of surface rust up inside both air ducts running along the inner guards. Its not bad but I don't want to leave it untreated. I am doing a full bare metal resto on my 260z 2+2 and want to get rid of all of the rust or at least pacify any minor bits that may remain.
