I recently bought a new hood for my restoration project.
I am kinda doing an A1 job so the surface rust that sits between the inner face of the hood and the reinforcement frame kinda bugs me ....
I was planning on removing it from the hood the acces the back of both parts to get rid of alle the hidden rust.
Has anybody tried this before ?
Am I heading straight to disaster ?
Yeah, I think you're not necessarily headed towards disaster, but I think you're headed for a lot of work.
What I would do is leave the reinforcement in place and use a product Eastwood sells. It's called Internal Frame Coating. It comes in an aerosol can with a flexible tube and nozzle that can get into very tight spaces. It's a spray that neutralizes the rust and is paintable. It's also very thin so it can creep into tight spaces. https://www.eastwood.com/eastwood-in...RoC55MQAvD_BwE
I dont know if I would remove the bracing or not but I would sandblast as good as possible and use an Eastwood or Por-15 product or something along those lines,,removing the bracing you could warp the outer skin or other type problems if your not careful ,,but if you decide to remove then get it on a good surface and use spot weld drill bits to separate , and don't get in a hurry
Thanks for the input.
Usually I am not a big fan of ''Solutions in a can'' but this product would probably do the trick.
The rust is not very heavy but I still need to get rid of it for obvious reasons.
I do realize that removing the inner structure would be a delicate operation.
