Product Information

Full details

Hammerite WaxOyl is designed for automotive enthusiasts and restoration professionals who need a heavy-duty, long-term rust prevention solution for vehicle chassis and internal body panels. Its primary benefit is a highly active, flexible formula that displaces moisture and inhibits rust formation even in hard-to-reach areas, though users should be prepared for a slightly tacky finish that can attract dust over time.

FAQs

Can I apply WaxOyl over existing rust?

Yes, it is designed to kill existing rust and prevent its further development, though you should remove loose, flaky rust first.

Does it need to be painted over?

No, it is a standalone rustproofing treatment, though its clear nature makes it perfect for discreet protection.

Is it safe for use on plastic trim?

It is generally safe for automotive materials, but it is best to wipe off any overspray from plastics or rubber immediately.

How long does the protection last?

When applied correctly to a cleaned surface, it provides long-lasting protection that remains flexible for many years.

Can I use it on the engine block?

No, it should not be applied to areas that reach high temperatures, such as engine blocks or exhaust systems.

How do I remove it if necessary?

It can be removed using white spirit or a dedicated wax and grease remover.

Troubleshooting

Product is too thick to spray efficiently.

Gently warm the container in a warm water bath to lower the viscosity before loading it into your spray equipment.

Coating is attracting too much dirt.

The tacky finish is a characteristic of the product's flexibility. If dirt buildup is excessive, wipe away excess product from highly visible exterior areas, leaving the internal wax to do the heavy lifting.

Uneven coverage during application.

Use a specialized cavity lance with a 360-degree nozzle for box sections to ensure the wax coats all inner surfaces evenly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent penetration into hidden box sections and crevices
  • Remains flexible and will not crack or flake off
  • Effectively neutralizes and stops existing surface rust
  • Clear formula allows for visual inspection of the underlying metal
  • Generous 15-litre volume for comprehensive projects

Cons

  • Finish remains slightly tacky and can attract dirt or debris
  • Requires professional application equipment for best results
  • Not suitable for areas exposed to high exhaust heat

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare the surface, ensure it is clean and free of loose, flaky rust. While WaxOyl is designed to work over surface rust, removing loose scale with a wire brush will significantly improve the bond. If applying inside panels, ensure the drain holes are clear.

WaxOyl can be applied via brush or, for better coverage, by spraying. In colder temperatures, the product may thicken; standing the container in a bucket of warm water can help improve the flow rate during application. Always use in a well-ventilated area and wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves and safety glasses, to avoid skin contact and irritation.
