Hi Kirkynut,

I bought the lanolin from the withamgroup.co. uk.

It aint cheap, i used 1.5 litres of the heavy grade doing the whole car, and i bought 1 litre for £55.00. So in my error i bought another load, in essence i had to buy it twice. So in short, 1.5litre does the jimmers nicely, and that every nook n cranny, in the chassis rails ...everywhere.

Best to go for the 5 litres and save it for the next 2 years applications, thats what i'll do next time.

5 litres is £150.00. A much better buy! By the way, the latest lanolin from prolan is called enduro. The witham group dont advertise it as this, but it is the latest enduro they send you, so no worries there.

I cant rate this stuff highly enuff!! Its lovely stuff.

Thank you for that Andy. Funnily enough I heard about it first from old Roothy on an Australian 4WD magazine DVD as I used to subscribe to it.

Lol, yeah i like old routhy, a straight decent fella. I like 4x4overlands videos too, Andrew st pierre white, he's a nice fella too. Ive been inspired so much by the South africans, Aussies, and the new zealanders. I know they are into serious overlanding and there kit is full on and large, it still inspired me to want to go further with my own jimmers.

Got some plans when this lockdown winds down, first is too cannock chase, then the lake district, then peak and then to the bigjimny meet. Will be nice to see people face to face again, its been very isolating this whole saga, im sure we all feel the same.

But yeah.... the lanolin is amazing stuff, its just a joy to work with. The benefits are so vast its a whopping list of pros as opposed to cons.

The lanolin graese is amazing stuff to, i use it in place of copper grease, proven to last up to 30 years under water in salt water too! Slapped it straight on my radious arm bolts.

Thanks to the sheep of this world i have prevented rust attacking my jimmers.

Cheers.
