Thanks

Just use POR15. It’s proven and its relatively cheap.

I highly doubt this works. Alot of unibody’s cars panels are put together with glue (seam sealer etc) and this will stop the electrical charge this thing gives.

Look up sacrifical annode in google and you will basicly see how it works.

When I used to do pipeline we always attached them and buried them.

Yes, it only works when you have a body of fluid right next to the metal.

So if you fill your car with water it will work great.

Correct me if i’m wrong but i’m pretty sure the panels arn’t held on by just seam sealer, its just that they don’t seam weld the car but rather tack and plug welds and just fill the rest with sealer to prevent leaks…the product is still probaly crap though…
