Welcome Ulf. I think a lot of people use ACF50 light lubricant anti corrosion spray on the wing seams etc , and something heavier on the underbody. I havent used it, but this seems popular https://www.lanoguard.co.uk/product...Y_UVqveCk2gb-WJMWC53-xcNP7EaAv7MEALw_wcBor of course there's the traditional Waxoyls, also Comma do a wax-oil spray that I have used- As with everything its all easier up in the air. Alternatively, develop an oil leak at 50+kph, should cover everything  I know!!

And, with your warmer climate, don’t forget to regularly nourish the leather, to prevent drying out and cracking. I use Turtle Wax Luxe leather cleaner and conditioner, which is reasonably priced and smells good.

I was little surprised about the level of blistering/bubbling up when i was looking for a car My purchase looks well kept and the ivory body shines as new want to keep it that way incl the undercarriage....

Ulf, some people say ACF50 affects the seam material & prefer light oil like 3 in 1. Check all the earths as they can corrode & make sure there are no leaks into the indicators. Earths

I am in a similar position, I have started on the underside with Bilthamber Dynax UC on the metal work but, have used Dekaphon 9735 on the rear inner wheel arch panels and the underside of the floor boards as it appears designed for the job. I have used ACF 50 on boats before but will use 3 in 1 on the wing beading. Will probably do the top of the floor boards and other less exposed plywood with Deks in due course.
