Once i get my floor pans replaced what's the best way to stop rust from coming back and stopping already exist rust before it get bad.
As a fellow cheesehead, don't drive on Wisconsin roads when they are wet. You'd think the salt would be washed away by June, but it's not. That salt compounds the problem immensely.Wash it down with clean water, and get it dry if you do. Shop-vac with a blower and a long hose to get it dry. If you're on a budget, old drained motor oil works good, make sure get it in the nooks and crannies. That leaves a smell though.Once i get my floor pans replaced what's the best way to stop rust from coming back and stopping already exist rust before it get bad.

Rusty, would the Rustoleum work ok for spraying inside the front frame rails? Is it thin enough to spray through a cheap deck sprayer, or would it need to be thinned and multiple coats applied? (Sorry for hijacking your post a bit, OP).I have been doing this a long time and tried most all the new and latest stuff and I keep going back to Rustoleum. It's the absolute best product, IMO. And no, you don't have to get all the rust off. You do however need to get all the loose rust and scale off. I hear everybody hollering "POR15" all the time. I've used it. It's a GIANT MESS. It will get up your butt and there's no explanation of how it got there. It gets everywhere. Plus, you have the extra expense and labor of having to top coat it, because ultra violet light breaks it down? Paint the **** TWICE? I don't think so, Tim. Not this honky. One time and done. Rustoleum.

I used Rustoleum on the bottom of my 71 Barracuda as well, but I prepped the underneath with Rust Mort first. Picture of my homemade redneck rotisserie for fun. Rod

I too have used Rust-Mort with good results. It can be sprayed, but should be top coated when completely dry.I used Rustoleum on the bottom of my 71 Barracuda as well, but I prepped the underneath with Rust Mort first
How do you get it inside of the frame rails?If you're looking for something to do the inside of the frame rails as well, I'd recommend Eastwood's internal frame rails paint. Ive had really good results using it.
Eastwood Internal Frame Anti-Rust Coating, 14 oz. Spray

Do you got a blueprint or plans on how you made this.
