fyfie5 Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 looks better mate but only for a while until the rust comes through again u can get something like this from halfords http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... yId_165594 but im sure this isnt the best rust eater out there but im sure the guys on the forum will know better ones think i will invest in something like that.Nice work! Are you going to underseal behind the skirts and front bumper? Tis worth doing. I got rust starting to show up between the bumper and rear quarter panel. And around the doors where the window seals sit cheers i think i will do, defo under the skirts as they can get real bad! rust is a pain in the a*s!!

KiNK43 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Looks good man. Keep saying it, but if ya wanna stop rust on a Honda you need to take the inside of the boot out and seal inside the arches. Condensation forms due to poor airflow in the rear and the moisture runs down an rots the corners of the arch and sill from inide out.if ya got bubbles on the outside I guarantee inside is super crusty!
