			Fixing small rust holes
		
		
				
					
					
				
				
		
			
				
					Found a few small (10c piece) holes in the floor of my Rangie when cleaning it out.  Its right at the back, on the floor, near the fuel filler.  Someone had glued a piece of rubber there, which trapped moisture ... and rust resulted.
I can clean up the area and rustproof it, but how to fill the holes?  Bog?

					you could cut it out then weld a small plate in and then rust proof it

					I fixed a few rust holes by cutting the rust out. Treating with rust converter solution. Then covered them with a sheet of thin aluminium which was sealed with Sikaflex, then pop rivetted  and then finally sealed with sound deadening paint on both sides. The underbody  sound deadener did pong for a week or so till it completely cured. It was an unpleasant tarry turpentine smell on hot days.
I treated the entire passenger compartment floor space and transmission tunnel though  [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]
