hi everyone

I have loads of clear Waxoyl left (in the big can used for Schutch application)

However I want to convert it to black Waxoyl for a neater appearance on subframes.

Can I add a white spirit based paint or dye to the mix to change it from clear to black?

I read that black waxoyl is the same as clear but with bitumen mixed in

Any suggestions please, at £20 a can I don't really want to have to buy a black one.

cheers

I dont see why not to be honest.

Mix a bit of old engine oil in with it, it wont do the car any harm

Ah good tips! cheers

I didn't think of oil, but that would be the obvious choice!

I shall have a look in the garage for some and let you all know.
