I know there are posts here and there about body rust. I started another one because the others are all about replacing pieces and touchups. On my car, '86 T/A, there are a few spots on the passenger side that have rust on them. The drive side is clean as a whistle, but the passenger side needs some work. Its really nothing major, it just looks like all I have to do is sand it off, but eventually I want the paint the entire car black from its original color white. Around the wheel wells, the outter trim, there is bubbles and rust forming. How I get rid of that? Also, if anyone can hook me up with a new GTA spoiler, I would really appreciate it seeing in how mine has cracks and is starting to show its age. Actually, a passenger door for the same year and car would be helpfull too. I'm located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Email me if you have anything that I listed and anything else, ya never know...I might need it! Thanks in Advance!

The only sure way is to spot sandblast, (Eastwood sells a spot blaster), metal prep with a Phosphoric type product, Ras-O-Nil/Picklex-20, then seal it with epoxy primer, then shoot the paint.
Without proper prep, micro rust will still be present and it will eventually come back. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
