I removed my fenders today, after finding a couple of pin holes of rust. The fenders are in great shape but there is a reinforcement piece about 5 inches wide running from top to bottom near the front of the fender. It seems at some point there must have been moisture in there between the two piece of steel, but there's no way to sandblast, or get into that cavity. How would I go about making sure it doesn't' t continue through out that piece. I was thing using por 15 metal prep then the por 15 rust converter. Is there a better way to go?
Thank you |

Aside from taking it apart, blasting, rewelding, etc, your suggestion is about all you can do. There are plenty of hidden, non-accessible, or not worth the effort examples you may find this to be the best solution. How about the surface rust inside the quarter panels or doors that has not broken through. You gonna take the whole quarter off to blast and paint or spray it with a rust converter and sealer as you suggest?

Your right overkill, there in great shape just 2 pinholes 1 fender. I'm also repairing my t top channel that's heavily pitted, I already bought a product called all steel (aluminum resin type compound) is there something better? Any small holes already mig just filling the pitted area. I'm thinking it probably gets a lot of moisture trapped just like the windshield frame. Anybody have any time proven ideas.
Thank you |
