    Amazing work you are doing on this car. Most people would have given up. Interested to see what you do next after fixing the last big rust.

    After short pause, we back on the work. There is some good protection before final painting.

    what do you use to seal after making repairs? I have tried primer and little stuff like that but the rust comes back. I guess being 1/3 mile from the ocean doesn't help

    It is material for isolation on "Bitumen" base. On outer parts under car, we use also "Bitumen" base in spray.

    Won't the bitumen trap moisture and cause future rust return?

    If you work properly, rust will not return.

    Shame to see that much work done only to be painted with trim clips, door handles, window moldings etc still installed but masked off.

    Just like I say. We lost too much time on another commitments and we were not able to go into every detail. But again, paint doors job was done fine.
