Before replacing my inner wheel liners at the rear of the x type, I taken onboard the task of cleaning the subframe along with the whole components of the suspension that goes with it ! i can honestly say what a task it was? from washing down the underneath first, Then different wire brush attachments on my drill to remove as much rust as i possibly could, along with a hand wire brush to places the drill could not get at. to be honest i could not believe how bad it was underneath to the lower arm, upper arm, part of the chassis, subframe, rear lower arm, anti-roll bar drop link, coil spring, tie-bar hub carrier arm, but hey im under here lets do this! two weeks later and here are my results.

the preparation i done was clean any debris (hand wash or jet wash) all underneath. then remove rust as i first posted, but then treat any rust with an anti rust treatment, then use a rust beater paint (hamerite) then black spray hamerite, then anti chip spary paint to finish off.
