waste oil as underseal

[(RIP) rustygates]

Hi all, had the terrano over the pit wed all day, got some old engine oil in a 10litre drum and attached hose to my schultz gun and connected to compressor and put my overalls on and was happy as a pig in s**t spraying underneath with the waste oil, in the chassis and sills and everywhere and now it's dripping away on a plastic sheet in a barn for a few days, this is the second time i've done this in the 8yrs i've had her and no corrosion so far on the chassis or bodywork except for the fuel line which went last week, i did a temporary repair and waiting for plastic lines to be made, then i will replace both flow and return.

Hi all, and thanks for the comments they are very supportive (not) lol,
rustygates are now in a semi synthetic colour since spraying them with the oil and amazingly we have had no callers since, not even the environment people, they can't find a way through,with all that waste oil so i reccomend everyone to do it.lol.
