Brief summary after living under the car for a while:
- Anti gravel brushed off (not peeled off). Nasty job. Dinitrol Rust Converter plus paint applied where surface rust popped up. My theory says that what does not come off after an energetic wire brush massage does not have rust inside
- 1 kilo of beach sand extracted from behind the C points. Dyson vacuum cleaner with a hose attached proved to be a good tool. the car lived in Mallorca before
- Very good right rocker panels and sills with traces of a nice welded repair
- Good left rocker and sill. RConverter+zinc paint spray injected. Thinking of injecting wax later
- Sound deadening painfully stripped from floors. RConverter and zinc over minor areas of surface rust. Then 2 coats of white primer
- And now the high tech touch: japanese thermal insulation paint used in rockets called Gaina. 2 coats over the primer. An additional pair of 91 Yellow paint will be added. Not sure if carpets will fit on top of this sandwich
