Yes I’m sorry to read you suffered with ACF - I was warned against using it by a very well regarded Cornish Morgan Engineer as he had seen the results of it.
I stick with the MMC recommended 3 in 1 oil and it has suited me well for 20 years now. This was the advise in my Morgan handbook by the way.

I did post a warning on here 10 years ago but I think someone had a vested interest and shot me down wink I have seen too many sunrises for that to bother me mind smile
The only piping problems with my Morgan is the owners rofl

Good luck with the job.

I think that the 3 in 1 oil recommendation annually is for two reasons. It will inhibit rust in the staples, and it will create an element of lubrication so that the chassis twist will allow easier movement between the wings and the body tub. Like anything else, we have a choice and there will be consequences either way, but it will never be exact because both mileage covered, and the amount of wet weather encountered will affect the outcome.

If the movement chafes the paint, the aluminium will start to corrode.
