Rust Damaged Repaired

Postby magnum1300 » Sun May 23, 2010 12:49 pm

Been working at the rust on my magnum, only a very small amount which im thankful for. Quite lucky to have to little. These are some pics of the bogging, its now all sanded back and primed for painting now, unfortunately i have to get the paint custom made, so might be a while before i do that. But at least its protected which is the main thing :D

if its holed -Cut it out and weld in new metal - it will only come back :cry: If not holed then do yourself a favour and completely remove all rust spores with wire wheel on drill , then apply an anti corrossion solution , then a decent rust inhibitor primer then its ready for colour :) It doesnt look that bad , but you wont know unless you start removing the paint and get back to bare metal (hopefully not looking like a lace curtain)
Just dabbing on some rust killer product will not cure the problem :cry:

Doing this on my Viva at the moment and hating it :( don't have the patience. Got scabs and chips in near enough every panel though luckily no holes so sanding down, kurust, then primer.

Got some paint from Halfrauds although they have Monaco White 1 and 2. Went for what I thought was the nearest match but I'm not so sure its the right shade. Will be fun finding out :roll:

C&C Car Colours in Crawley will make you up proper Celly in rattle cans in Monaco white, they have the wide spray nozzle as which gives better coverage.
