And don't rustproof! Rustproof seems to inhibit rust if you don't do it in a 100% dry environment and coat every inch!

Doesn't just sound like it, all the rust was thoroughly repaired with new sheet metal not long ago. The paint is OEM colour and painted with a spraygun but I think there's no clearcoat on it.

And Blade my boy.......... You haven't seen what happens in finnish weather with no rustproofing. Especially now in winter when the road surface is 50% wet snow and 50% road salt. Instakill for cars. And I'm a car mechanic after all so I do have some contacts with rustproofing experts. Us finnish people have mastered the skill of defeating rust since our conditions are the worst in Europe rustwise and still we drive the oldest cars statistically.......
