Is anyone familiar wiuth this product?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&am...

I have used the Jenolite version years ago to halt decay on HV Switchgear Transformers at the request of the then Electricity Board and must admit it was superb stuff. The price seems pretty reasonable aswell.
Any thoughts or experiences?

Used it on the 'M' chassis earlier on this year, pretty impressed with the result. Wire brushed the areas down then brushed on - quite thick to apply, definately will need a mask and well vented area or prepare the painkillers for the headache. It hardens off fairly quickly. topped it off with a couple of coats of smoothrite. No problems

I'm thinking about doing something like this soon, is this the same as undersealing the chassis??

Not really, this is a treatment for the rust on the chassis when you have removed the flackey paintwork and this would be done prior to undersealing or painting the chassis.If you dont treat the rust it will carry on developing beneath the underseal and will cause the underseal to fall off meaning you are back to square one.

ah right, sounds well worth doing then.
