all this talk about rust proofing in this newsgroup had me thinking.

1995 honda del sol vtec. my baby, the paint is wonderful. underbody is
in pretty good shape according to the mechanics that have seen it on
lifts. Should Krown or RustCheck be something to consider for the
upcoming winter season? I will drive it through winter again.

i'm talking about the oil, or wax or whatever is recommended for the underbody.

I have the same question regarding my 01 Prelude SE. It's absolutely
spotless on the underbody and the rest other than a few rust dots near
the trunk seal (cleaned them up and applied touch-up paint on them, so
they should be fine). I'll have to drive it through the winter as well
here in Toronto.

Should I rust proof it? Cost is not an issue, I just don't know if it
actually helps.

The small one (quart) will be ample enough. while you drive a 1995 car, I
drive a 1982 car. This stuff is the best. If you are going to be super
careful and wear a hat, long steaves and gloves, you will not need the "S8
Multi-Temperature Reducer for use with CHASSIS SAVER" to get it off your
skin
