Subject:Rust on hookup panel on Westy
From:Royston, Jerry

Well it's time to finally address the rust on the body panel with the
camper hookups.  Here are some questions I have:

 

*        Does one have to remove the kitchen/sink cabinets to apply new
undercoat behind the panel in order to do a proper job?  

*        Is it a big deal to remove and reinstall these cabinets?  

*        Can a body shop merely cut out the rusty metal from the outside
and weld a new piece in its place or does he have to replace the entire
panel?  

*        If it's only surface rust, does sandblasting to bare metal and
painting with POR15 do the job?  The rust only seems to be on this
panel.
