I've been putting this job off as it's my least favourite.
Cleaning the underside. ;(
So just got stuck in over the weekend.
Front arches are very good.
Just a little patch of surface rust at the end of the sill.
And the odd stone chip.
Sill cleaned up and just needs treating and painting.
Generally, underneath is excellent. When I have cleaned everything, treated any rust spots and painted, everything will get a fresh coat of dinitrol 447 which conveniently is black.

That's looking really good, the lack of rust is really outstanding for a B2 chassis car.
I've made a couple of wirebrush extensions for drill's, very handy for getting into the tight spots.1989 B3 2.0 3A 80 quattro... Budget 1.8T Project.

So, after almost a week of work, the underside is almost done.
Some rusty spots were cleaned right back to good metal and treated with Bilt.
I put a small amount in a clean jam jar and use it from there. You can't put your brush in the main bottle as it contaminates it slowly.
Where the rust is between seams, I clean back as best as possible and use this. Fertan seeps into the seams and works really well in difficult spots.
Now, onto prep. I need to de grease everything ready for fresh underseal.
I like this.
Sprayed on pre mixed and a good scrub with washing up brush. Then rinse with warm water.
Crazy humid here in west Wales today so I won't be doing any painting for a while.

Had a push this afternoon and got all the prep done.
This bit behind the battery box is almost impossible to clean. Did my best.
Unfortunately a stone chip on the sill has spread into the paintwork.
Now I just need to heat the garage up and move onto the painting stage.
