Hi everybody, I have a set of perfect, rust-free doors that I am about to bolt on to my 200B, as the ones on there are not-so-rust-free. Now the car is parked in the driveway but not undercover, and at this point it time is where it will have to stay. The doors in question have been stored undercover but outside under a laserlite roof for the last four years or so. They are still pretty good but a couple of them have had some slight surface rust start to appear on the outside. They're in original Datsun paint currently.
I don't want to bolt these doors on and then six months later see them rust away as that would be a complete waste, so can anyone suggest a good way of preventing them from rusting away once out in the open? Honestly it could be a couple of years before the car gets garaged again, I'm not sure at this point. I have had people suggest POR-15 or Fish Oil. I have heard of the latter used in several cases by numerous people. The shell has held up well in this time with no protection but I'd probably use the same product throughout all areas.
Thanks in advance, Alistair
