With rust being one of every classic car owners worst nightmares, our rust protection and repair services will put your mind at rest.
We offer full hidden cavity wax injection with special attention to wheel arches and rear portions of front wings. Being a restoration specialist we have seen many rusty Jaguars and know exactly where there vulnerable areas for rust are, going to extra lengths to protect from or slow corrosion.
We can also high pressure wash the underside, attend to rust by removing loose fragments and neutralising surface corrosion using inhibitors, we then prime exposed areas of unprotected metal before finally re-coating in modern under-body sealant. To prevent over-spray we always make sure to mask off the entire body including important underside components.
In the matter of penetrating rust, we can carry out high quality weld repairs to the underside and body before applying the procedures above. We always inspect the car prior and recommend if any repairs need to be made. To proceed, we send images of the affected area/s along with repair estimates to the client for confirmation.
There are some common rust areas – a typical one is scuttle rot on late XJS’. See more here.
