Best way to protect against rot?

Don't buy a Landrover.

Yeah, the doors you just need to remove the cards etc, wind the window up and spray away, this is where i found the hot wax better, the oily mist gets all over, and in the window channels,make sure tho that you dont block up the drain slots in the bottom or you will find (like i did once on a cresta) that you have a door with a pond in the bottom, i also did all the double skinning behind the trim in the back and sides and especially in the tail gate, this is where the tail window mech gets rusty,
Land rovers!!! i cant understand why they dont treat them for rust better than they do, my son had to get the complete rear chassis replaced due to rust, bugga all protection on em, beats my how they hold their price so well, even rough old landys go for a fortune, he paid over six grand for his 90 and has spent well over that since, admittingly not all on rust repair but still!!
it's all down to the $hit we spread on the roads,

Tip i read and will try this winter is to use a garden sprayer under the vehicle to wash the salt off
one of those ones that sprays veritically and moves in an arc i guess
more effective than using a hose
