Small rust holes in the floorpans.... I took out my carpet yesterday and noticed that the drivers side floorpan has a couple little rust holes in it. They're no bigger than a dime each. How could i repair this? I'm going to POR-15 all the floorpans but how should i rid of these holes first? I really don't have access to a welder right now but would that be the only solution? Thanks for any help!! |
It all depends on what you want to do with your car..If you want to keep it then I would suggest cutting out all the rot holes and welding in patch panels and por-15 it all ..That would last the longest..If you just want a quick fix then take a drill and get a copper cleaning wheel and scuff up all the rust spots then por-15 all the bare metal then get a good quality body filler and fillin the holes ..........Good luck dude......... |
I would like to keep the car for a real long time, but no way can i afford new floorpans or anything. For now i guess i'll just por-15 it and then eventually get it fixed right at the body shop. thanks for the help |
Clean real good, cut a metal patch (steel) and JB Weld it in. Smooth it out after it dries, then a good coat of paint. |
I had a serious rust problem along the seem in the driver's side area (6 inches x 1). I cut it out, used Por-15's mesh, putty, and paint about three years ago and the 'fix' still looks great. With problems so minor, don't (at least at this point) consider anything too radical. JamesC |
i had the same proble, i had it temp. fixed, so i just had them patch it, just because i didnt want my carpet soaked when it rained, |
