Nissan Rust

Forgot to add that while body rust is to be expected on most cars from this time, I see it much more on Nissans than others, especially Maximas and Sentras

protip: wash the salt off your car, rust belt dweller
>I see a lot of other rusty nissans
because they're too lazy to wash the salt off their vehicle like you

From what I have seen all Japanese cars from the 90s and earlier rust anywhere where it snows and has roadsalts, with Lexus being the exception. The only thing you can do is get new rockers and rustproof your shit. That is if its worth repairing.

Protip: rustproofing means actual wax shit like Krown, Tectyl, old engine oil or anything else like that, not bedliner, or that bitumen shit that does nothing to actually stop rust.

I bought the car in March of this year in this condition. My other car I wash frequently but this one is mainly used for deliveries and errands so I'm not too concerned about the rockers and such.

There's lotsa hondas and subarus up here older than this maxima that have less rust, and I remember a mechanic telling me that there is a fairly common pattern of rusting with these Maximas, and they usually rust out before the powertrain croaks

Rus patterns that are common on car models are usually due to shitty design, like trim pieces not sitting properly and wearing the paint through, wrong/weak paint (I'm looking at you, 90's Mercedes), low quality steel, and underdimensioned/missing water draining holes/ventilation

Lanolin (fat from sheeps wool) is easily the best in my opinon

They drill holes in the body to inject their product. That troubles me and could disrupt my sleep.

Just buy the stuff from your local autoparts store and DIY, no need to drill holes then. Its way cheaper also. Here getting a car rustproofed is 200€ minimum. They even said that this is mainly just the cost of the product (yeah right, only if they are going to dunk the whole car into a pool filled with the stuff).

Is that what they use? I knew they sold stuff here for rust proofing, but not that lanolin was their choice of protection

I'll gladly be their shill. Delicious, gellly goodness that sticks like glue to the underside, protecting from fucking everyhting

Smells like rancid death for the first few days tho

Supposedly you don't need to drill holes on modern cars because they're already so full of them you can just find one to spray your shit in. Now I'm sure there are a lot of places out there that still drill holes because they're lazy as fuck but you could probably find a place that won't drill any either on request or just because they do it that way by default.
