My '60 Champ project has a number of places where old Bondo has grown rust underneath and is cracking off or showing tell-tale brown surface cracks. I hadn't planned to take it all to bare metal but it is beginning to look unavoidable as I'm finding rust under paint both under bondo and elsewhere.
I'm using both 25% vinegar washes and Master Series products to kill the rust and seal the surface. I'm impressed with the way their products apply and they are less expensive than Rust Bullet or Eastwood. But, get it on you and you will wear it to Church two Sundays.
The most curious bondo is the step-side fenders where bondo approaches 3/8 to 1/2 inch thick. There doesn't appear to be serious damage unless perhaps a load of rock was dumped on them leaving a lot of minor dings.
Has anyone else found what appears to be excessive bondo on step-side fenders ?? Could this have been factory applied or was this applied at a previous paint job?
