FCP Groton sent me an article titled "Award Winning Fertan Rust Converter Now Available At FCP"

Has anyone used this? Fertan products come from Germany.

I'd used phosphoric acid preperations like Naval Jelly and POR-15? Is Fertan better, if anyone has used it?

I found an article on the RWD using the brickboard.com search. The article was a review of rust 'therapies', if you will, for RWD PV 444-544:

https://www.brickboard.com/RWD/volvo/1594731/444-544/recommend_treat_rust.html

My three 240s have the rust, and I need to treat these beyond using feeble AutoZone to somehow restore undercoating. Though the 1990 240 DL li'l red wagon needs more than some naval jelly. Because of this in part:







The outer body panel, below the left side rear hatch hinge / D-pillar has separated from the rear inner fender / wheel well. The car port falling on the 1990 240 DL li'l red Wagon happened in January 2008 in Spokane Valley, WA. That's the car port in front of the crappy apartment I had. A few days before, I parked my 1991 sedan there, and I rented a garage just those few days before. The sedan may not have fared so well. Yet to park the 1990 240 DL li'l red Wagon in such fashion that the car port landed right on the rear hatch hinge plate probably saved the wagon and all seven or so of the neighbor's car parked to the right (west) of it. The Volvo saved other people's cars. Yet the cars to the left (east) did not fare so well.

So I need to weld the outer and inner panels back together, and treat the rust.

I'd not yet used Waxoyl to treat blind compartments just yet. Another chassis-oiling product I'd only red about.

Did I post these photos before. I don't see them in by brickboard.com account BrickPix index.

So, anyone use FERTAN rust removing products?

thanks,

Anti-Rust Dud.
