Inspect
We look over the accessible underbody, noting corrosion, loose coatings and areas that need attention before treatment.
Professional underbody protection
Lanoguard Underbody Protection
Protect the underside of your vehicle from the water, road salt and grime that drive corrosion. Applied professionally at our Kidderminster workshop.
Lanoguard product image • Lanoguard LtdWhy protect the underside?
The part of the car that takes the punishment.
The chassis and underbody are continually exposed to moisture, road salt, grit and dirt. Lanoguard is a lanolin-based, transparent protective coating designed to form a flexible barrier over the treated surface.
Transparent finishThe treated surface remains visible for future inspection.
Flexible barrierDesigned to remain flexible rather than forming a hard brittle coating.
Surface-rust compatibleCan be applied over sound, stable surface rust after loose material is removed.
Annual protection cycleLanoguard recommends inspection and top-up at least annually for continuous protection.
Example imagery supplied by LanoguardOur workshop process
More than simply spraying underneath.
We assess the vehicle first so the treatment suits the condition of the underside.
Prepare
Dirt and loose or flaking material need removing. The surface should be suitably clean and not dripping wet before application.
Protect
Lanoguard Moto Spray is applied to suitable underbody areas, with Moto Grease used where heavier protection is appropriate.
Maintain
The coating should be inspected periodically. Lanoguard recommends at least an annual top-up to maintain continuous protection.
Where it makes sense
Not just for old cars.
Underbody protection can make sense on an everyday car you plan to keep, a 4x4 that sees winter roads, a van, a cherished classic or a performance vehicle where preserving the underside matters.
Existing surface rust?
Lanoguard is not a rust converter. Sound surface rust can be treated after loose and flaking material has been removed, but serious structural corrosion needs repair rather than simply coating.
Box sections and cavities?
Where appropriate, Lanoguard's injector system can be used to reach internal cavities and hard-to-access areas.
Freshly treated vehicle?
The coating initially has an oily feel and develops toward its final candle-like finish over roughly 7–10 days, according to Lanoguard.
Straight answers
Lanoguard FAQs
Does Lanoguard remove rust?
No. Lanoguard describes the product as a protective barrier, not a rust converter. Loose or unstable corrosion still needs appropriate preparation, and structural corrosion needs proper repair.
How long does it last?
Lanoguard markets the underbody treatment as providing up to 12 months of protection and recommends at least annual top-up for continuous protection. Actual condition should be checked rather than relying only on elapsed time.
Can it be used on a vehicle that already has surface rust?
Yes, on sound and stable surface rust. Loose rust, dirt and flaking coatings should be removed first so the treatment is applied to a stable surface.
What areas are avoided?
Friction surfaces and components where a lubricating coating would be inappropriate must be kept clear, including brake discs and pads. We apply it selectively rather than indiscriminately coating everything.
