WAX OIL MY MOTORHOME (1 Viewer)

[GROMIT69]

Took our ih N class 630 RL to have it wax oiled , it's a bit hairy watching your pride and joy going six feet in the air , on a four corner lift ,but it was nice to get a good look at the underside and I must say PRIMROSE COMMERCIALS , made a great job of it , they removed all 28 rubber gromitts and did all inside the chassis box sections as well as inside the sills and the floor , then they left it for an hour , then came back and did it all again , Danny the guy who did it is a motorhomes as well so he knows what we need and expect , all this for £125 , ours was new , it's £140 if they have to clean it first ( older van ) , ours is 6.3 meters , but he is happy to quote for longer vans , most impressed with the service ,

That's very cheap.
To do our coach built cost about £70 just for all the waxoyl.
We have our own compressor and application gun and probes.

Looks good. I think a good thing to do for what in the grand scheme of things is very little money. Just met someone with another IH 630rl like ours, who had decided to trade in their old one as rust was showing its ugly head. Mind you it was 10years old at the time and hopefully protection techniques on the base have improved.
I persuaded hubby to spend a few days in his back on the drive doing the best he could!
I didn’t realise could be done like you had it done. I won’t show him this post!

That’s a brilliant price for your waxoil treatment as I paid £500 for my last van a 6.3 Auto Sleeper that was in 2014.
My new van was done by our dealer built in price with other extras.

Looks very good and a good price too, but where are they?

 

[Dorwyn]

I'd certainly get mine done for that price and service. But not in Essex, way too far from me. Somerset, Devon, yes please!

Thats a job worth doing,for a great price also, especially if you intend to keep the van for a long time, and why shouldn't you if it meets all your needs.
Happy for you, enjoy your travels.

That's an amazing price for such a good job, wouldn't of believed it possible without the pics.

 

[Zains Pops]

That sounds a great deal I’ll call him re my coach built

 

[grasscutter]

Exceptional price. Cannot remember exactly but I paid around 450-00 to have my Hobby treated. As I live about 70metres from the sea I felt it was worthwhile.
The chap who does my MOT's said it was a good job and certainly worth doing.

Wow what a great price! Paid £500 to have my Defender done 3 years ago!

 

[BusyBuilder]

Thought he would have removed the spare.

 

[westhamman]

Not far from from my parking, do they do servicing as well.

[GROMIT69]

No I don't think so , but you could give them a call as there are other units on the little estate and I only went to PRIMROSE COMMERCIAL

 

[Blue Knight]

That's incredible value. I spent all day doing our first van by hand and it was a real crappy job. It's just a shame they aren't more local to me.

Very informative post.

Cheers,

Andrew

TBH at that price it’s worth a trip down, chuck in a night or two camping either side and you’ve got yourself a mini break

Busy builder beat me to it, re the spare wheel not removed..
Cheers, Dave

 

[Spriddler]

Aha! So it's Waxoil not burgers that's the cause of all the obesity then!

He did lower the spare wheel to get behind it , then when it was dry put it back , but did not take it right off , when the van is on the ground you lower the wheel onto the ground , when it's up there you would have to lift it over your head to get it back on , hope this helps , and you can now sleep at night .

 

[soreeyes]

I have done my vehicles and trailers for the last 35 years . A gallon of Waxoil and a paraffin gun on the compressor and a couple of hours .

 

[Dorwyn]

So garages that charge upwards of £500 are really coining it then? i suppose cause it's a messy job?

Just note the original post is 7years old

 

[L' Hobo]

Great price, but wrong time of year.
The temperature need to be up and Waxoyl warm by putting it in hot water so that it runs into all the crevices.
I have a commercial compressor and proper gun and do mine in July/August.

 

[the1andonly]

If doing the crevices and hidden bits add upto 20% white spirit to thin it down allow for better flow. But it stinks.
