Re: Quarter panel rust repairs

All welding is done. I used "Metal prep" (POR15) and rinsed with water... I will let everything dry a few days and then it's time for the black stuff - POR15. I also bought their seam sealer for the invisible seams.

There is about 3mm of filler at the thickest spot on the fender so someone has done some repairs in the past too. Checking with a long ruler - I don't think I will need more than that . Only one small buckle from the heat and that's inwards.... a little filler will take care of that too.

Next winter I will use the SVX only on days when it's cold enough for not getting salted.... and on the ice track days :-).

I would starve to death if I had to do this for money, though.... such a novice.
