    I set up the second half of the shed for the car by closing it in with some plastic.

    Best decision EVER!  SOOOOO much BOG! discovered already = So much dust!!

    Got the rear quarter and drivers door stripped and coated in keyphos.

    The lower section was about 6mm thick with bog, covering up a few dents and a massive hole, and surprisingly the sill wasn't rusty, just totally dented in and filled with bog.

    Went through 2/3 coats of paint stripper then ended up having to use strip discs as 50% of the panel and the drivers door were totally layered in bog. Two strip discs and a dead grinder later i'm wondering if I just cut straight to sandblasting.....

     

    any OS'ers in the waikato keen to come and cut out my rust and fit some new steel??
