I am doing a restore/rebuild on a '81 Toyota Landcruiser. Lotsa rust,lotsa work,lotsa heartache. My question has to do with treating rust.
I have a spare set of doors with some surface rust and some medium pitting. I sandblasted the pitted areas and went down to bare shiny metal on the minor stuff. I want to hang the doors up in order to tidy up work area.What should I do with the pitted areas before I prime them and hang them up out of the way. I live on Vancouver Island,ocean is very close. The doors will be under cover in a carport, but exposed to outside air.
Should I hit the areas with a rust converter(plasic kote) that I got at napa and then prime or use naval jelly then prime. I was even thinkig about using the rust converter and then Zero Rust. I did the frame with black Zero Rust, it looks sharp.
Thanks any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Jack
