But what I want to do is get my car on a lift, and look everything over and make sure I repairing any spots that need repairing and strip any surface rust off. But I really would like to bedline the entire bottom of the car. Well, anywhere that is part of the body. Even do it in the wheelwells. I think it'll look nice, and would prevent any rust from ever attacking my car. Because I will have to drive in the snow and get all that salt on my car, and I would like this car to last a long time and if I ever have to sell it, it won't have any rust.
But I need help knowing what to look like. With surface rust, can I just get a grinding/ stripping disc for an angle grinder and just go to town on it? Is that all it takes? I know if there's anything more than that, it'll have to be cut out and weld in a new piece. And if I do cut pieces out, can I just weld in some sheet metal since it's just the bottom of the car? No one will really ever see it but me probably. Also, is it possible to have rust INSIDE the frame rails that doesn't show on the outer shell? Is that something that can happen? I plan on doing the trunk too, just because I know they can rust sometimes.
Sorry for all the questions, I just want to make sure if I do end up doing this at some point, I cover everything that could potentially rust or cause problems. I also don't want to spray the liner on and it end up rusting underneath it, and I won't know till it's too late. Once I put the liner on, I want to make it 110% clear there is no rust underneath. So if anyone could let me know anything to look out for, how to do it, or any places I don't know about that'd be awesome. I hope to hear from someone!
