@boonvang708 2 жыл бұрын

How has that stood up to the test of time? Because I find that if I just use primers it only last about AT MOST 3 years before I see the rust eating through the paint again. And this could be something like the top of a trunk lid

@gimmeagig 9 ай бұрын

What do you think about using a rust converter before the primer? I have some areas on my old truck that are difficult to get the rust off by sanding.

I need to do this with my 2012 Ram 1500. Right rear quarter panel is rusting behind the paint between the bumper and the fender well. I'm gonna have to remove my rear bumper to get behind it tho. I plan to apply black rhino liner under the body line on both sides of the truck front to back to help protect it from future salt and chip damage

What brand die grinder is that?

@Vernon360 2 жыл бұрын

So looking into die grinders so I can begin on some smaller areas on a resto project but what about for large panels? Previous owner replaced the fender but never treated it so it is covered with surface rust. I do not no much about die grinders but it seems it would take forever to do an entire panel with such a small tool. What's the alternative?

@chrisgraham2904 Жыл бұрын

Electric and pneumatic orbital sanders are available, for reasonable cost, from all the home centers with disc size up to 6 inches. Usually for wood working, but also excellent for body filler on larger areas. I've even used a belt sander for rough work on large panels. Final finishing of large panels are best done by hand with a long leveling block.

I know this is an old video, but I was always told to go in circles and keep moving when hand sanding, but you went in straight lines, so does it not matter wether circles or straight ?

@1AAuto 4 жыл бұрын

+Will4May Thanks for watching! The main thing is to have the sand paper on something flat, not just your fingers. We use a sponge in this case, bit if you have a block that will work as well!

@48Ballen 4 жыл бұрын

what about the backside of those panels which are surely rusted worse than the outside? What is missing is how to treat the inside as well as the outside because the cosmetic fix is not going to last long at all.......I would suggest unbolting the fender and treating the rust with phosphoric acid ( Naval Jelly) and repainting it with some really good frame paint to prevent recurrence.

The local auto body shop told me rust comes from the inside of a panel, and can't be fixed without removing and replacing the panel. True?

@alexg8460 Жыл бұрын

That’s true once rust starts it’s because it’s already on the Inside think of it as a Cancer on metal. That repair will rust out again from the inside. This is a patch job
