If you have a pre-hydroform aluminium-winged car then get the waxoyl into the folded edge NOW!!!!
I have a 2010 Defender 110 which I picked up ex-demo at 6 months old and I waxoyled inside the chassis immediately. I wiped all the cross members and as much of the underside as I could get access to. No problems so far.
