Yep. I've used it on another project which isn't finished yet.
The Mini is still up on stands and i ain't touched it for 10 years or so.
I painted the boot floor area (underside) with it and to be fair, where i've applied it, properly, there is no rust.
It's an awkward paint to use insomuch that it needs 2 coats within a certain time period so the instructions need to be followed by the letter.
Expensive yes, but what price a rot free Mini.

looks like i'll have to order a tin or two then ( god this restoration lark is expensive

)

the entire underside will be painted with it then seam sealed and stone chipped and then the top coat can go on. hopefully that will keep mr rust away for a few years
