Yep they do it for only about £40 or something daft like that* and anything is better than nothing.

*by saying doing it, it being make the underside of the Bongo black they can. But how well it is done I have my doubts i.e. jet wash underside, dry off all parts then remove plugs and do the insides of the sills etc...Oh I don’t think so, not for £40.

A & S did my Bongo nearly 3 years ago and I paid £45...watched them do it. They didn't jetwash the underside but it was very clean anyway, they removed the spare wheel and got the Waxoyl everywhere visible. Since then I have just bought some clear waxoyl from Halfrauds and a small pressurising kit all for about £30 and done inside wings, sills etc myself...sod paying £300-400 for it...if you want peace of mind do it yourself... IMO A&S waxoyl very good value for money...Regards Geoff

I wasen't knocking A & S and for £40 odd its a fantastic deal. So if you do like Geoff and I have done, finishing the job off ourselves, its a winner.

I had mine done at A&S and now I'm worried. Do they miss bits? It sounds as if you are saying they only spray where they can see?? If that is the case where else should waxoyl go and how do you do it? do not get too technical, as I am not techy minded at all!!

I had mine done at A&S a couple of years ago. There were a few patches missing, but it is a cheap job. It's pretty easy to have a look underneath for any missed bits and spray yourself. I wouldn't be too concerned.
