...too had the same NEGATIVE response from the same Cleckheaton Van Centre, the same van centre from where I purchased said van from in 2016 shelling out £36K. Within 20seconds of viewing " Zinc Inclusion" and not covered by the 12 year corrosion warranty. I read that you addressed the issue...

My main issue is I can’t get under the van I have no real area to set the van up and get into this kind of stuff .. I don’t trust the stupid Jack . So I would like to get the correct bolt and then I’ll take it to someone else who can fit it

If you want a 100% durable finish get them zinc metal sprayed, obviously only one colour and they would need to be stripped.

For reasons that I don't understand, China gets a free pass from the rest of the world on certain things, like forgetting to notify the WHO about a pandemic that started there until it had already spread globally, opening 2 new coal power stations every week, Human Rights abuses, to name a few...

...rust marks of the lower wishbones, and coat them with my go to hammerite smooth one coat in black and silver. Brakes were sorted out with a zinc galv spray on the disks, and foliatec stratos silver for the calipers. Used these in the past with good results tbh. Should keep them looking good...

It's zinc inclusion, factory process causes it.

Are you sure they are rust blisters and not zinc inclusion? have you got any pictures?

I’m not sure anyone stands out as an EV supporter but we can see they have their purposes as part of the answer. Likewise I could say have any of the I've supporters considered the damage caused at drilling sites and that oil sales support Putins war (isn’t that why the West stopped buying it...

I recommend some zinc 182 primer and black ssmoothrite. If you were closer I could lend you some ! Ian

Thanks for the tips @Niknak Would NO NONSENSE ZINC GALVANISING SPRAY PAINT SILVER 400ML be OK? Do I need a topcoat as it's gonna be hidden once the side step is put back?

I'd be concerned about the pen tip drying up or getting damaged. I'd go for the pot with brushes. Like @dubber36 says, the colour is key. As an aside, for those of us with reflex silver, I've found Zinc Primer from Screwfix is an excellent filler and colour match for deeper damage.

That looks like zinc inclusion to me. I had a Passat that suffered from this. It was a warranty job.

Did you notice much difference after sound deadening the arches mate?

...across the frame. Rubber dampers are built in to prevent drawer rattle while driving. Our flap hinges are marine-grade stainless steel (most use zinc-plated, which don’t last as well and are prone to snapping). The bulkhead is held with Dyneema-cored line – lighter, neater, and significantly...

Make sure you rub it down well and do a couple coats of a good zinc primer and then a topcoat

Hi All Does anyone have a view whether stainless or zinc plated bar, nuts etc. should be used? Cheers

Hi, I'm wondering whether I've got any chance of getting zinc inclusion on the paintwork of my T6 covered under warranty. I noticed a handful of little, uniform lumps had appeared on various parts of my Silver T6 about a couple of months ago. I took the van to my nearest VW approved paint and...

Christ..........I'm no expert but that looks like zinc inclusion!! Mine had it......got done under warranty. Thought they'd have sorted it by now!! All I can say mate is persevere!!

agreed. It’s zinc inclusions. My last van had them. I took it to see a painter not connected to VW and his advice was to leave it. If you do decide to claim expect a battle. Search the sits for zinc inclusion. There is a lot of info on here. @Tourershine is the expert.

Is there an advantage over just normal hammerite metal paint?
