I just tried Lanox on the troopy as a rust preventitive . What an awesome oroduct . I used the little spray bottle that comes with the 5 litre container and sprayed it under the car and inside all the panels and did the engine bay as well . Similar properties as RP7 but it doesnt wash off with water and boy does it move grease/ oil stains . lanox is on the bottom half of the page

Will dust stick to the surfaces you have sprayed ?

When we did some checking on lanolin for fishing reels, we found most sprays were a mixture of lanolin and kero. The kero dries and the lanlin remains to protect the surface. We also found it was no good for reel bearings as it added to much friction.

Lanolin is incredible stuff.

Dust will absolutely stick to it. And not come off!

I sprayed it all over the underside and chassis of the last Patrol and there was still evidence of it when we traded the car a couple of years later.

The car smelled like wet sheep for a few weeks too.

mmmm, LAMB!

Cheers

Yep, I sprayed the underside of my troopy before we did Fraser Island.
Makes the sand stick like poo to a blanket :-(

Lanolin Grease is one of the most waterproof greases available - sheep have been testing and improving it for thousands of years.
