    Protecting inner arches

    Well, today I pulled out the arch liners as I needed to make some changes to the cav, now while they aren't bad (obvious repairs previously made - that haven't been well protected) I've decided that I want to take my grinder over the, with a nice flappy paddle rust treat, prime, paint and protect.

    I was thinking along the lines of schultz, or a repeated treatment of body underseal - assuming it can be painted over.

    Any thoughts?

    I'll try and post up some pictures later.

    I would take any rust back to shiny metal, then etch prime, prime and paint, then schultz.

    Not really, that's the best way.

    Excellent, 2 weeks off so plenty of prep time. Lots of other jobs to do too.
