When you said previously to "lash everything in wax" to what extent do you mean? I've heard of people covering the entire car in clear wax polish, to provide a barrier over the paintwork. Does anyone do this?


Waxing the paint will make it shiny. Very little (structural) rust starts from the outside of visible body panels, unless paint chips are allowed to deteriorate badly. It's the hidden bits you have to watch.
