Spectrum? Ok, I'll look into it. The tar has held up well. Since reading all of these posts, I've taken samples off and have found just clean, bare metal. I guess I'm lucky.
I appreciate all of the feedback and dialogue, everyone. I'm new to 914World.

I used a brush to apply multiple coats after I had completed all rust repairs and primed the pan. Definitely got rid of the tinniness of a bare metal pan. |

I too took off samples and found bare metal so I decided not to do the whole floor, but then I saw ndfrigi's photos and so I checked those areas. Sure enough, I found rust under the drivers side tar. Its only surface rust but I am now converted and will strip the entire floor pan. Did you look around the accelerator pedal? I noticed the rust is in the low spots/valleys. I hope you are lucky and don't have any Dan. good luck. ps.s Thanks to ndfrigi for the pictures, it was an eye opener! |

QUOTE(bandjoey @ Oct 15 2016, 09:52 PM) $39 multi tool at Harbor Freight. It cuts the tar out like hot butter. 80% less time and mess of a heat gun Best $40 you will ever spend!!! It took me 30min to remove all the tar. It just flakes off. Don't use heat. |
