I was put off removing the cross-braces etc for repainting as the corrosion was only surface-level; I'm glad I did, as today I treated all those pesky ferrous areas underneath with Lanoguard and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to use. A simple spray nozzle attachment to the 2 litre container allows a variable spray, from fine mist to jet squirt, which gets into most of the areas that need protection with not too much physical contortion. It makes you smell a bit like a sheep shearer, but seems to be a benign product which is also made in the UK. It fully cures in about a week, so I'll have a close look next weekend and re-treat any missed spots; I'll keep an eye on it over the coming weeks, but am hopeful it will prove effective. Has anyone else on the Forum used this product, and what have you thought of it?

Nice to meet a fellow Darzet man!
Don't blame you, however you could have tried a goodwill warranty claim even if your out of your warranty period. New Ver 2 items had an extra Zinc layer.
If it's easy to put on (like most products advertised on Farcebook), then unfortunately it'll come off easy as well.
There are no longevity tests for this product, but I bet you it's an annual top up product.
I've been preserving (concours) bikes and cars for decades, and having tried most coatings on the market, ended up with Corrosion Guard, which is used for the marine environment.
Search the posts, you will find I've written at length on the subject. Far exceeds anything on the automotive market.
