Inner sill...

The inner sill only has some light surface rust on it - after treating it with a coat of Hammerite Rust Beater, I then gave it a couple of thick coats of black Hammerite paint.

I also gave the inside area of the new sill a couple good coats of the black Hammerite.

Just need to clean all the flanges of paint for the spot and plug welding.

With the car out of the garage for the second time and both near side wheels up on the ramps, I wire brushed the surface rust off the floorpan, also removing the under seal from the sill.

Cleaned up an area just in front of the trailing arm fixing point which has a split in the metal on the angle – this is going to need repairing.

Also cleaned off the filler from the rear sill/lower panel - not as bad as the other side.

Finished off with a coat of Hammerite Rust Beater.

Time to clean up the off side floorpan, with car on rams I wire brushed the driver side floor and propshaft tunnel and lower sills areas.

All in a good order except some dents which I knocked out from the inside. Then painted the area the Hammerite Rust Beater followed by good coat of Stone Clip.

I will be finishing it all off with Waxoyl later.

After cleaning up the rear floorpan area it was time to tackle the surface rust with a converter. Using Hammerite Rust Beater as my first stage, followed by good coat of Stone Clip. Then I will be finishing it off getting into all the hidden areas with Waxoyl.
