Lanolin oil spray kits.
« on: February 23, 2014, 11:54:55 AM »
Does anyone know, if you can buy a kit or something. I'm thinking, a bit like those home bug spray kits.

5 litres of product and a little pump and hose arrangement.

I tried the Google thing on Autobarn, but it just gave me a pressure pack can. I want to give the frame rails etc on the Jeep a bit of a go over.

Well speaking from intimate experience of the place you did the google search on....
No such thing as a pack. However, If you want to make your own, a $20 weed sprayer with wand and hose from bunnings,
and a couple of 2L bottles of lanolin should do the trick

Have you got a compressor? If so this is what I use.

I've tried many things over the years (Alfa owner.... :-[).  Engine cleaning guns and even weed sprayers are OK, but neither really gives a good low pressure 360 degree fan shape that you really need, particularly when doing vehicle bodies where you need some measure of accuracy.

I use a stainless chemical / weed sprayer and from the trigger I fit the 5mm poly irrigation tubes to make a wand (they slide stright inside the hose from the trigger), then use irrigation spray nozzles screwed into that.  You can get into relatively small spaces, and being cheap plastic it's not the end of the world if you lose a nozzle.  I don't even bother cleaning them, just bin them after use.

These come recommended but I've yet to check them out.  I believe they fit a specific sized product bottle:  http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/like/281234887806?hlpht=true&ops=true&viphx=1&lpid=94

It would be much easier with a pair of grunt bars though.

Jeepers is it for rust proofing?  Valvoline Tectryl is a much better product and easier to apply. It's what a lot of the fishos up north use to protect there trailers, fantastic stuff. Comes in spray cans, 5sand 20s.
Here for a good time, not a long time!

Be careful with Tectyl.  For chassis protection OK, but for internal body protection I'd use something else, especially on older vehicles with poor factory protection, and have probably already started rusting. 

In my experience Tectyl and other heavier waxy products dry too quickly and don't have the penetrating capability of less viscous products.   They can also build up very thickly with over zealous and/or repetitive application, blocking drains, and creating water traps.

But, Tectyl don't stink like fishoil.......

Also, you really need to think about what you are trying to achieve.  I see many vehicles with great coverage all over the outside of chassis rails, and over flat/smooth internal panel surfaces.  Unfortunately, these are nopt the areas that rust, at least not critically.  Rust starts in areas where panels come together (spot welded flanges), welds etc etc.   So make sure you get the product into these areas, and clean those spots beforehand if it's at all possible.  Standing underneath  a vehicle on a hoist and painting everything you can see with a thick black coat of tar does diddly. ;D

Lanotec's awesome because it'll keep flowing and get right into tight spots although it's really only good for interior use. not so good for the underbody except as a touch up because it's a natural product
So it breaks down when exposed to UV and has an operating temperature range same as a sheep (cos that's what it's made of)
Regardless I always have a can, it has many many uses and it's great for human skin too!

I also use Ferguson's Knock-out Rust KO66, on the underbody and anywhere else I need it
It has tar, lanolin, fish oil, basically everything
I buy it by the spray can from Super cheap, but the guy who makes it is in Nambour, he might do you a deal?

With Tectryl blend it with some diesel then spray it [ 50 / 50 mix  maybe slightly less  ], the diesel will climb up seams and take a film of tectryl with it, then the diesel dries away and leaves the tectryl coating ...helps if you plug the drain holes in the panels you are spraying for a few days too... just dont wash the car or drive  in the rain till you take the plugs out of the drains ..

Yeah lad uses Lanotec on his Seadoo 1.5L liquid cooled motor(they have a heat exchanger) under the hood no worries and it's regularly used for marine inboards and outboards generally, where oil based products can attack rubber hoses, etc. You may be pleasantly surprised how far a spray can goes in that regard.
