Default bad dreams

I had a restless night last night thinking about the rust appearing on my sills

there was a couple of blisters appearing too that looked like water blisters

I can reast easy tonight as they arnt as bad as I thought.
I got all the crap off give em a waz over with a wire wool drill bit thingy.
then put a liberal amount of rust remedy on followed by a couple of coats of hammerite

I got rollin about underneath and did most the chassis too

Ha thats nothing mate, It's proper rot you want to look out for. Sills will rust from inside out also, Worth chucking a load of waxoyl in them.

As Fez says, remove the inner door plastic covers, I also poor gunge into the rear inner wheel arches and let this ooze out the back of the sills.

I have exactly the same mate, few water blisters

I'm going to do the same soon, flat them out and then cover the sills in Waxoyl
