Eric,

Waxoyl will do the trick.  I tried it out on my MGB bare chassis - It 
came in two cans one of which had the applicator and a sort of 
wand.  But after a few attempts and warming the cans to get a good 
flow, I got a little jaded.  When the car was on the road I took it 
up to some place that claimed to be the original Krone but now better 
than all the others (heard that a few times !!!).  They shoved big 
long high powered wands in all over - the car that is - and all done 
in 1/2 hour.  Car dripped for days (cardboard under it)  Still creeps 
up the outside of the doors - and that is after 6 or more 
years.   The cost difference is minimal and I am sure these places do 
a better job than we can with their equipment.
