Hi all,
This is my first post, thanks for letting me join the forums. I was unsure what thread to post this under so sorry if it's wrong. I have a 1986 Toyota 60 Series landcruiser with rusty floor pans. I've never ever done any panel repair but was told floor pans are quite easy to do. I asked the panel shop and they said if i don't get rid of the 'black pitting' from the metal it'll continue to rust no matter what. I sandblasted the worst of it and cut the worst of it but have some black pitting left in other spots.
I thought that if you used the right rust converter, and primed and painted it that would remove the oxygen/water from it and once it's sealed it would be impossible for it to rust since rust needs oxygen? I was then going to paint and seal the underside of the pans. Sorry if i'm using broad terms, i'm just very new to this. I do trust the shop, they've done heaps of work for me and it's always been 100% and i am returning soon for more work but was hoping to do my floors myself as a learning curve.
Thanks!
