buzzweld brand products, any good?

Everything that doesn't belong in the previous categories probably belongs here. Interiour (how are the seats mounted? how to remove the CEM?) and exteriour (how to replace the popup-lights shock absorbers or a door) are discussed here!

Hi there,

I was looking for something like an Eastwood's rust encapsulation product and google threw up a UK company I had never heard of before called Buzzweld, have any of you used them?

Yes, we used them for my sons land rover's cross member which was rusty. I have to say it looks like new now! There products seem great and they were very helpful. Recommended.

Thanks for that guys, much appreciated, I've tried quite a few of Bilt Hambler things over the years, and really like the epoxy mastic as a default base-coat paint, and love the POR15 seam sealer. The job I have in mind is a paint for a 'quick' underseal of rusty bits of the car when its in the shop as an alternative to the usual waxoil thing, so I was looking at Eastwoods Rubberised Rust Encapsulation paint, when I noticed the Buzzweld stuff, I'm glad Rachel had a good experience as they seem like nice company.

Yeh, from our experience and from what I hear they are a great company. Some guy had a lot of stuff pinched off his land rover actaully at a show ground this year :angry: Buzzweld offered to pay for the parts needed to replace the stolen ones :D If a company goes to these lengths to help out their customers they cant be bad!

Just used the buzzweld rust encapulator product and it was very pleasant, very thick drip free paint, has left a nice terracotta finish, I'll let you know how it looks in a year or so!
