" From: Frank Swygert <farna@xxxxxxx> " " You can clean all that up, prime and paint (or use " "rust conversion" primer), rivet/bond material over the holes " (it's not weakening the structure, I'd bond it with urethane " panel adhesive or epoxy, or better yet use fiberglass), then " spray on a good thick coat or undercoating. Paint the inside too " (or again, better to 'glass over it -- the 'glass will seal it " much better than paint!). " [] " Fiberglass rules in rusted areas like these! there are many different resin chemistries but the most common is polyester, and be aware -- POLYESTER IS NOT WATERPROOF!!! water vapor can 'breathe' right through to the metal. protecting the metal with something like ospho first would cut way down on the possibility of rusting under the 'glass. ________________________________________________________________________ Andrew Hay the genius nature internet rambler is to see what all have seen adh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and think what none thought _______________________________________________ Amc-list mailing list Amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://splatter.wps.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/amc-list
