So I have an earlyy E100 pickup coming.....got the donor...
I want to do a good job on the body...good, not win every show but look good.
What is the treatment for rust? All types of rust.
For instance, I have a tailgate that has old chalked paint, no serious dents but the scratches have all rusted and there are minor rust patches..no rust thru.
Do I wheel brush down to bare metal at the rust areas and just apply primer?
Or do I use that special rust preventative coating and then the prmer?
What do I do at the van panel seams that have rust lines? Do I dig out the rust, wire brush and then bondo?
How big of a rust hole is is too big for bondo before you have to weld in a piece?
