AS my wife says of me, you seem to have an unquenchable thirst for new and more exotic ways to experience rust!
 Very true Frank  |

The car did eventually get primed, etch primer first then a few coats of this thick 2K filler primer I like to use as it goes off fairly quickly and gives plenty of depth to be flatted off to level any minor deviations or scratches.

Important once all the primer is flatted off to spend time taking the old masking paper off and doing it again, the dust that is on this paper would blow off when you paint and make a right mess!

Likewise the front windscreen scuttle top change has blended in very nicely.

The arch extensions and repairs to door openings look better than they did.

The car then got moved out so the remaining panels could be looked at.
Hatchback had the familiar rust in the corners, no big surprise!
Outer corner repaired with a new lip
