Wide Trac flare rust repair?

Post by sgtpoliteness »

So, the only rust on my rig is a few spots on the LR fender flare. I'd like to get those tackled here, real quick. Anyone here have any experience with this in particular or rust repair in general? I am less than...enthused, at doing body work but I figure this will be well worth my time.

CMA - looks like this link is down. Do you happen to have an updated one or a description of how you tackle this? Thanks!

Thanks. I wasn’t sure if he would get notified since he was involved in this thread.
