POR for Floors...

[tr6harris]

Decided to POR-15 the floors for past rust issues....Should be good for another 50 years...


I removed a couple of rectangular plates which are attached to the floors on either side of the handbrake tunnel.

Do they have any special angle/azymuth in which they there installed at the factory? (Edit - It appears they should align parallel to the tunnel as the frame runs, is how I'll mount them, although I don't think they were parallel when I removed them...)

Good idea, kinda one and done. Did you do any special prep?

I used Jasco Prep and Primer for the rusty areas. Appears it is NLA, but there are other rust converters metal preps out there, even one from POR-15.

Used degreasers for the raised edge tunnel areas where leaking gear oil seeped through.

Sweeped, vacuumed

Laquer Thinner and a large sponge to wipe/clean/strip for final application.

Paint brushed the edges and tight areas, then used a small roller to cover the larger surfaces.

Oh, and used small hair Bondo to patch/fill a couple of small rust through holes before the above.

Must be... When I ran out I couldn't find it where I used to...Lowes or Home Depot, so I just bought a gallon of Phosphoric Acid off Amazon.

Yeah. I am pretty sure I bought a bottle for my stash of chemicals after you mentioned it in some thteads years past.

It does etch after a while though as it says.

Recently been using Evaporust as a sit a soak. it works well!

Bought one of those HF sonic cleaners and did some of my seat parts, as well as put the seat racks in a shallow tub. Came out pretty good. Stole that one from Ed_h!

Pics later.
