That Krown has anything to do with the British Royal Crown? I doubt it. What would be the US equivalent of that oil? Has anyone an idea? Because it is so common to see the left bottom of a Westy rusty and we should not let that happen when there is a solution for that. Is that oil a rust inhibitor too? I would like to see the list members take care of this interior rust problem, whether it is from condensation or the water leaks of the tanks inside. I have seen rust outside of the rear window washing tank too.
