    I Waxoyl'd my 2006 MINI Cooper S before last winter, best thing I could have ever done. Full story here >>


    God help the poor tech that has to replace something under that Mini.

      That will be me [thanks for the blessing]. Best part is the nuts and bolts should come right off ! No penetrating oil needed! Amazingly as gooey as the Waxoyl looks, it dries up pretty well and still remains somewhat live.

        While the nuts & bolts will come right off, it is a miserable mess. My WRX had the same type of coating all over the undercarriage. While it offered great protection, it was a mess when working on it. However, an acceptable trade-off overall.

          everything on my 90 was waxoyled when I got it. it is nowhere near as bad as the oily drippy muddy crap that is all over the bottom of every land rover.

          c'mon bertha...what are you gonna stain your lab coat?
