December 22- Dave’s Floorpans
A couple of things are going on here. One, you can see that the floorpans are very solid, rust-free, they’ll be great and won’t need metalwork. Two, the previous owners installed some kind of insulation with an adhesive spray, so now strings of the old insulation are all over the floorpans (that’s the white-yellow stuff). So what we’re going to do is sand away what’s left of the adhesive and insulation, because this kind of insulation is like a sponge, it just soaks up water and holds it to the metal so it starts to rust often, and eventually replace it with an asphalt-based water-resistant insulation pads, which will stay dry and work a lot better to avoid rust. Under these pads, we’ll convert any surface rust we find and hit all the floorpans with undercoat spray, which is a really thick and hard black paint-like spray that will further help to prevent rust.
