I use rustconverter (fertan) on all old stuff and then paint it with some epoxy rust preventive paint called ferpox (both are german products, known for good results in restoration).
The welded pieces will also primed with weldable primer (don´t know the name). After all work is done, all the caverns will be flushed with protective wax. This should work for the next 100 years, cause the car will not see much rain in future(hope so) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Fabricating the new sheetmetall is realy not so hard. You need some special material. Think you can get it at your flaps. This material can easily be stretched and bent and has a coating that should prevent new rust. next time I will take a Pic of the tools i used to fabricate all the stuff. :gerflag |
