Help!! My 145 (sorry to mention it here) is quite rusty underneath and needs sorting. I need to remove all the underseal to treat the rust before re-undersealing. Is there an easy way to do it? I'm sure I saw something once that you paint on and it removes the underseal (I don't really fancy messing about with a hot air gun if I can avoid it)

Here are some piccies - and you thought 33s were rusty!!!!

Nice one Bobbber, thanks for that, you are a guru!! I did spot that in the Frost brochure but assumed it was a kind of paint stripper.

Hows the POR15 going? I'm using it at the mo, seems to be quite good

I think you'll find I am actually quite mad, and obsessed with the whole thing.

I would read the Frost catalogue to my nipper at bedtime if I thought I could get away with it! Laughing
