    Sorry, I'm on my phone and it's clunky copying links over. That's the stuff that I found works really well. There's one of those 3M coatings that can be painted over, I can't recall which, so check their website, if you plan to paint over it.

    Personally, I think it doesn't need to be topcoated if not directly exposed to UV.
    I do things.

      Thanks! I will proceed to do this. I’ve always feared the rubber coating as I’ worry mouisture and water can stay trapped and then I’ll end up with just the coating and no more metal.

        I'll answer here.

        Sonny asked me about alternatives to sanding the rust in a PM.

        POR-15 my man, learn it, use it, love it.

            The primer is essential. It makes the barrier between metal and coating.

            Keep in mind, I live in Louisiana, it never snows, and we never see salt on the roads.

              So steps listed in order to repair slight surface rust in your experience

              Por-15
              Primer
              Undercoating


              All nailed down thank you!



              Now the fender itself has some rust from chipped paint, I’ll be using the same method and replacing the undercoating with paint.

              Thank you!

                Did my best with water pressure and a brush. Now time to cover the rust


                I hope the other side isn’t the same.

                  M10 is officially finished and rustproofed!

                  Need to get started on the $600 M20 build from 2 months ago



                  lovely McLaren, it’s stunning but you can never beat the attention grabbing E30 .


                  Curious question what engine swap would be worth the effort without a high chance of completely bricking the car and never to run again. No crate order rotary, even thought that’s what I really want. Junkyard pulls only if there’s a good suggestion

                    Why are you saying now that you could never sell the M10 but in the nonsense thread you said you are going to grenade the engine for a youtube video?

                      I’m not selling it. Engine will be rebuilt if it does go, that’s what she really needed from the beginning anyway.

                            All day on R3V, baby, pure bliss
                            We working on the E30s nights like this
                            bald tires like my balance never needs a grip
                            All day on R3V,baby, pure bliss
                            Soon to cruise together at a night like this
                            Driving around considered a slow whip
                            Redline it single bottle cap spin and clutch slips
                            And that's real shit, we keep it real, shit
                            Slow E30s, kinda like my own clique
                            youd want a fast one, ain’t cheap but fun
                            All these E30s have me love struck
                            Check engine on, timing belt gone
                            Buy the E30s, they ain't gonna last long
                            E30 can make you, E30 can break you
                            think of all the places It can take you..
