    looks fantastic mate, yellow is a great colour on the nsx, look at nobby's na1. bright colours look good on na1 and na2 cars.
    i have used krust to treat surface rust so interesting o know if it's similar stuff. the other stuff i used was the green gel that you
    brush on then leave a few hours, work in and reapply then after a few hours wash off and turns the brown rust to a nice silver metal.

    Thanks,

    Yeah, the bilt hamber stuff just stops rust going furthur and seals the area, the gel will strip the rust away but as it was pretty rusty was worried i would have nothing left, after winter hopefully will get new brackets and seal from new so they never rust again!

    Still cleaning the suspension and arches, removed all the plastic linings and had to replace most of the clips and screws. Removed most of the underseal and replaced with new. Very time consuming as I used steam mostly as wanted to avoid harsh chemicals around the bushes etc.


    Still got to remove brake discs and paint dust guards and treat any rusty areas.

    Just undersealing the other 3 corners now....

    Painted Brake shields,anti roll bars and suspension spring coils that were rusty with por15, very serious stuff, no solvent can remove it and drys to a flexible coating but as hard as glass (double glazing!).
    Really strong stuff so important not to breathe it in! impossible for more rust to set it where por15 goes. Any rusty bolts i coated with a clear sealant. All this on 4 corners. Wheels should arrive this week

    Got the alloys back from Lepsons who have done an amazing job, before I put them on, time for a few coats of sealant and wax! New wheel nuts too...

    No before pictures, but got most of the shine off the leathers and treated them with leather feed.

    The attention to detail going into this refresh is to be applauded .. it really is looking very healthy and can endorse Lepsons workmanship too.

    The pedal covers, do them simple 'stretch' into place?
