WHAT IS LANOGUARD UNDERBODY PROTECTION?
Lanoguard Underbody Protection is a treatment designed to safeguard your vehicle's underbody from rust, corrosion, and damage caused by exposure to elements like moisture, road salt, and harsh weather conditions. It utilizes a natural, lanolin-based solution that forms a water-resistant barrier, preventing rust from forming on metal surfaces.
WHY IS UNDERBODY PROTECTION IMPORTANT FOR MY VEHICLE?
The underbody of your vehicle is constantly exposed to environmental factors that can lead to rust and corrosion. Protecting it ensures the longevity of your vehicle's structural integrity and prevents issues like seized bolts and heavy dirt buildup. Regular underbody protection helps maintain your vehicle's value and performance
What does the Lanoguard treatment process involve at TH Detailing?
At TH Detailing, the Lanoguard treatment process includes:
-
Preparation: Removal of wheel arch liners, undertrays, and mud flaps to access the underbody. A thorough deep clean of the underbody is performed to eliminate dirt and contaminants.
-
Application: Lanoguard Moto Grease is applied to vulnerable areas such as weld seams, nuts, bolts, sharp edges, and mating surfaces. This is followed by a full spray treatment over the entire underbody and wheel arches. Internal injection of Lanoguard into box sections, sills, subframes, slam panels, and chassis components is also conducted.
-
Exclusions: Lanoguard is not applied to brake discs, pads, calipers, or engine auxiliary/fan belts, as per manufacturer guidelines. It can be applied to the exhaust system, which may produce a temporary smell post-application.
How long does the Lanoguard treatment take to complete?
The Lanoguard underbody protection service at TH Detailing typically takes 2 days to complete. The vehicle should be dropped off at 9:00 am and will be ready for collection by 5:30 pm the following day. This timeframe allows for thorough preparation, application, and initial curing of the product.
How long does Lanoguard take to dry, and when can I use my vehicle after application?
Lanoguard reaches its final state within 7 to 10 days post-application. Initially, it is oily (Day 0), becomes soft by Day 3, and dries to a candle-like texture by Day 7 to 10. Despite this curing period, Lanoguard offers protection from the moment of application, and your vehicle can be used immediately after the service. However, it's advisable to avoid harsh conditions during the initial curing phase.
How often should I have the Lanoguard treatment reapplied?
While Lanoguard provides protection that lasts over 12 months, TH Detailing follows the recommended 1-2-3 treatment model: an initial heavy application followed by annual inspections and top-ups. This approach ensures continuous and optimal protection for your vehicle's underbody.
Can Lanoguard be applied to other parts of the vehicle besides the underbody?
Lanoguard is primarily designed for underbody protection but can also be applied to metal frameworks such as tow bars and T-bars. It is not recommended for painted bodywork panels; for paint protection, ceramic coatings are more suitable. TH Detailing specialises in ceramic coatings and can provide this service upon request.
Is the Lanoguard treatment available as a mobile service?
No, the Lanoguard underbody protection service is exclusively available at TH Detailing's studio in Stourbridge. This ensures that the application is performed in a controlled environment, allowing for proper curing and adherence to quality standards.
How do I book the Lanoguard underbody protection service at TH Detailing?
To book the Lanoguard underbody protection service, you can contact TH Detailing via phone, email, or through their website. A 50% non-refundable booking fee is required to secure your appointment, with the remaining balance due upon completion of the service. Please note that the booking fee must be paid within 48 hours of scheduling.
What should I do if my vehicle has existing rust or corrosion?
If your vehicle has existing rust or corrosion, especially on bodywork or painted panels, it's strongly recommended to have these issues repaired professionally before applying Lanoguard. Addressing rust early prevents further deterioration and ensures the effectiveness of the underbody protection.
What types of vehicles can benefit from Lanoguard underbody protection?
Lanoguard is suitable for a wide range of vehicles, including cars, vans, 4x4s, SUVs, motorhomes, and commercial vehicles. It’s particularly beneficial for off-road vehicles and those frequently exposed to wet or salty conditions, as these are most prone to rust and corrosion.
How does Lanoguard compare to other underbody treatments?
Lanoguard stands out because it is eco-friendly and derived from natural lanolin, making it safer for the environment than petroleum-based treatments. Unlike traditional wax coatings, Lanoguard doesn’t crack, peel, or trap moisture, and it dries to a non-sticky finish that doesn’t attract dirt or grime. It also provides excellent water-repellent properties while being easy to apply and maintain.
Does Lanoguard affect the vehicle's performance or handling?
No, Lanoguard does not affect the performance or handling of your vehicle. It is specifically designed to protect the underbody components without interfering with their functionality. The product is lightweight, and its application does not add significant weight or resistance to the vehicle.
How long does Lanoguard protection last?
Lanoguard provides effective protection for up to 12 months. However, for optimal results, especially in areas with harsh winters or frequent exposure to road salt, an annual reapplication or inspection is recommended.
Can Lanoguard be used on older vehicles with existing rust?
Yes, Lanoguard can be applied to older vehicles with surface rust. However, it’s essential to clean and treat the rusted areas thoroughly before application to ensure the product adheres properly and provides the best protection. If significant rust or corrosion is present, professional repairs may be necessary before applying the treatment.
Is Lanoguard suitable for new vehicles?
Absolutely! Applying Lanoguard to a new vehicle is an excellent way to prevent rust and corrosion from the start. It acts as a proactive measure to protect your investment and maintain the vehicle's value.
Will Lanoguard wash off in heavy rain or during pressure washing?
No, Lanoguard is designed to withstand heavy rain, road spray, and even pressure washing. Its water-repellent properties ensure the product remains intact, providing continuous protection against rust and corrosion.
Can I combine Lanoguard with other detailing services?
Yes, TH Detailing offers a variety of detailing services that can be combined with Lanoguard underbody protection. You can enhance your vehicle's overall appearance and protection by opting for services like ceramic coatings, paint corrections, or interior detailing alongside your Lanoguard treatment.
Will Lanoguard damage rubber or plastic components on my vehicle?
No, Lanoguard is safe to use on rubber and plastic components. In fact, it can help condition and protect these materials from drying out, cracking, or degrading over time. It is specifically formulated to be non-harmful to all vehicle materials.
What are the signs that my vehicle needs underbody protection?
Look for signs such as visible rust, discoloration of metal components, or flaky and peeling paint on the underbody. Vehicles driven frequently on salted roads or in wet conditions, as well as older vehicles, are particularly vulnerable and should have underbody protection applied as soon as possible.
Is the Lanoguard treatment reversible if I decide to remove it later?
Yes, Lanoguard can be removed if needed. It can be washed off using specific cleaning products or solvents designed to break down lanolin-based coatings. However, it’s a durable product intended to provide long-term protection, so removal is rarely necessary.
Does Lanoguard have a strong smell after application?
Lanoguard has a mild natural scent due to its lanolin base. If applied to the exhaust system, you may notice a temporary smell when the vehicle is driven for the first time after application. This odor fades quickly and does not affect the product's performance.
Can I apply Lanoguard myself?
While Lanoguard is available for DIY application, professional application at TH Detailing ensures the job is done thoroughly and correctly. A professional service includes proper preparation, cleaning, and precise application to hard-to-reach areas that are often missed in DIY treatments.
What happens if I miss my annual Lanoguard reapplication?
Missing a reapplication doesn’t immediately compromise your vehicle’s protection, as Lanoguard is designed to last over 12 months. However, an annual inspection and top-up are recommended to maintain optimal coverage, especially if your vehicle is regularly exposed to harsh conditions.
Will Lanoguard affect my vehicle’s warranty?
Lanoguard is a non-invasive treatment that doesn’t interfere with the vehicle’s mechanical or structural components. It is unlikely to affect your warranty, but it’s always a good idea to check your vehicle's warranty terms or consult with TH Detailing for clarification.
How should I prepare my vehicle for the Lanoguard treatment at TH Detailing?
Before your appointment, ensure your vehicle is reasonably clean and free of excessive mud or debris, especially on the underbody. TH Detailing will handle the deep cleaning as part of their service, but arriving with a clean vehicle helps streamline the process.
