So I pulled everything out of the car and I'm cleaning up the floor boards and firewall and all the reat of that fun stuff. Got all the sound material out and now i'm removing paint and rust. What is the best way to get into the center section to clean it up? You know where the "tranny hump" would be. Is there a way to get in there? I've got alot of help reading threads to get to this piont but havent heard anyone mention this part of the floor.

I'll jump in here, your talking about center tunnel and its mostly sealed not an easy place to work. I 'm sure others have tackled this area, but I has a little rust there and just cleaned as much as I could and sealed it with Por-15 a paint / sealer.

Thats what the plan was, should i just dump a good amount in there and let it spead itself into the areas I cant get to? Is it one over those things you do the best you can and try to forget about and hope it never comes back to haunt you? |

Is it one over those things you do the best you can and try to forget about and hope it never comes back to haunt you? No! I wouldn't dump POR-15 into the center tunnel ... If there is significant rust in there, it needs to be fixed the right way ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) ) ... If it's just surface rust, get a spray bottle, fill it with Metal Ready or Ospho and spray the heck out of the tunnel. Btw. your transmission is all the way in the back of the car, so no "tranny hump" in the cabin. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Andy |
