Rust on inside of Roof.
So I decided to remove my headliner today and unfortunately I found rust along the side where the windshield meets.
Guess It was leaking and was never fixed?

Im not sure but it seems as if the only way I can get all the rust out is if I cut, and I definitely dont want to do that.
Can someone please tell me Im wrong

I have literally the exact same rust on mine. Not as bad as tht but its pretty much the exact same size. Really wanting to hear an answer to this one.

Re: Rust on inside of Roof.
i would wire brush it either manually, or on a drill, then paint it with POR 15 or "chassis Saver" Rust encapsolator by eastwood works well too. I think GM just went really light on spraying paint up there...it rusted because it wasn't protected, doesn't mean that the roof ever leaked.

I have the exact same rust on mine. Size color and location. I think mine was from a deer crash by previous owner and now have a lovely softball size dent above my head. I havent even started to worry about mine to many other projects. Let me know how it goes.

Re: Rust on inside of Roof.
same man I don't really have time to deal with it and it doesn't look serious so I'm not gonna worry about it right now. I'll at least wait till I can get a headliner back in my car before I try and fix this. sounds easy enough though.
