Ok good point about the b pillar outer. Not sure how much I need. Yes similarly with the L piece I assume I just try and keep all that green painted part?
Clean the paint and any filler to good metal plus a few inches to be sure, you'll be painting it anyway?
Should I remove the whole outer sill do you think? On the other side we only replaced about this much but someone criticised that approach (not on here). I have a complete replacement sill. Rust isn’t bubbling through but there is surface rust on the inside. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I’m working on the same section. Replaced the whole slider track over 25 years ago. Last stop on my second trip around the bus while painting. Started with rusted inner rockers. Was just going to patch them. Ended up replacing the middle section below the track. I made the inner rockers removable by welding fixed brackets to the outriggers and welding captive nuts to the middle section and floor. Also repaired the inside of the C pillar.
Interesting. I plan to cut out my belly pans to see what’s beneath. Also now decided to replace the deformation panel. I’m gaining confidence as I remove panels. Just hope I can do the same as I begin to weld it back up.
Wow, I bought some ceramic belts for my power file and they are a game changer. https://abrasive-systems.co.uk/abra...-held-machines/powerfile-belts/fx87-36-457x13 I’m thinking I’ll use some vatcan rust converter and then paint black rustoleum paint on any metal I can reach before I weld back up. Anything wrong with that? What I can’t reach I’m going to use Dynax S50 cavity wax on. When people refer to cutting back to good metal, good metal can still have surface rust right?
