What the Camlo Undershields?
Well I believe you have to check if their actually suitable for your Mini model/year because they can foul later components that got fitted to later models.
I do remember them being tested years ago and it was claimed back in the mid 1980's that if their not fitted properly (and the example kit didn't come with enough pins/nails or whatever to mount them effectively), then they can cause dirt and grime to stay behind the sheilds and then accelerate problems even more.
I guess waxoyling is generally the best option?

I like to remove the wheels every so often & check for rust, if alls ok remove the dirt, then wash, wax & polish under the wheel arches, grease up the suspension, adjust the breaks & put the wheels back on, sounds tedious but only needs to be done twice a year,
Steve.
Nice one Steve, the inno is looking good, do you fancy doing Castle Combe at the end of the month we have spare seats in the bus, or like me, go in the mini, how about you Taff Fitzy
Yes that Mini does look mint Steve!
And we hope to make Castle Combe if we can, if so it'll be great to see everyone.
Taffy
Don't think I will be able to get to Castle Combe, I think I am working then, don't forget to take a helmet with you Fitzy!
Steve.
PS I aint forgot about them 60s motoring films, just can't locate them at present!
Thanks for reminding me Steve, will pass on the reminder to the rest of our group, Fitzy
Some may wonder why I have been quiet, i dunno why either, my server has been playing up and have been getting no posts from the group, now all of a sudden I am again weird...
hello anyway!
Why do you guys always hijack the threads?
erm, okay, just saying Hello, wasnt as if i was taking over the plane or anything....!!
Sorry Turbo Jo, you are quite right, I started the diversion, and I apologise to Martin also,
Fitzy
Cheers
No problem, I'll be at Castle Combe also, hopefully in my fully restored Mayfair plus some extras!
Cheers
Martin
Hi Martin,
This sounds interesting, what extras,, Fitzy
Stage 1
123 dizzy headlamp upgrade new carpets and headlining loads of welding white roof Tahiti blue
What difference did you find with the dizzy, was it better ? Fitzy
Tahiti Blue, lovely colour both of them! So which one did you choose, the mid 1970's BL version or the 1990's onwards Rover metallic?
Taffy
The Rover one, the jury is still out on the dizzy
