Re: rust, epoxy, cracking seam
I'm interested what to fill the seams with after treating as that's one of my jobs on the new van.

Hi and welcome
I (we) take it you have all the interior out, panels and everything that is not metal, so you can see what is going on from the inside (which is where the seams usually start to corrode from). As said, pics will help hugely
