Would this stop the axles rusting too?

ive got a feeling its going to turn up as the same as one ive already got. :(

just a different box/packaging. if it is theyre made by a company called Maypole based in Brum

if it is theyre full of tiny little holes, im not sure they will hold off water, iwill see what happens.

Well... could you send that £40 back for a refund? If the cheaper one works better ....
I could do with a cover for Miss Pug... she spent last year off road and in that ONE YEAR her axles deteriorated....... :shock:

ithought about what you asked again, My answer wasn't right idont think, (sorry :oops:
the cover wont protect the axles, once rust sets in its there for ever more, wire brush and underseal/wax oyl .. or if you want nice and shiny
then Hammerite is the way..
cover will only keep it dry on top /moisture off the ground will still find its way upwards
that's my thinking anyway... The proper way to lay a car up is to park it on wooden blocks imho.
