rust inhibitors and undersealing

Post by kefty »

Hi

I forgot to add this query to my previous message:

5: I have a pretty damn good condition van but the only signs of corrosion are bubbling down some of the seams, and in the hollow bit under floor next to side door, whats the best treatment for this, and is undersealing worth it?

Cheers Guys

KEFTY :D

shot blast the seams out plus a couple of inches around it. or use one of them rotary 3m scouring type drill fixings and a dremel to dig out the seam. undercoat with eastmans rust encapsulator THEN fill seam when dry with seam sealent, tiger seal has been recommended. primer, top coat blending in with existing as best you can.
