Hi, just taken delivery of a replacement rolling chassis for my 90. I have cleaned it down and there is virtually no rust on it at all (and certainly no rot). I am in an ideal position to treat this chassis before I begin bolting the bits back on.
Question: Would you simply WaxOil it, or would you paint it (Hammerite style). I have a friend who says the metal should breathe, so only oil it, but another friend who swears by paint (10 year guarantee with Hammerite). I personally like the idea of painting it whilst I can get my hands on it, and oiling it in later months/years????
