FLoor, Rust????? Fixable or not
« on: April 01, 2006, 10:22:57 AM »
Okay so i go and pull my carpet up yesterday cause i was gonna boxliner the interior floor.  As i am pulling it up i start swearing more and mor eit is a mess under there is there anyway to fix floors.  i am gonna cleen it up good this weekend and paint it up toi hopefully stop the damage that is going on but its already done.  What options do i have since it isa unibody?  I am saying leave it and when it gets c aged incorporate the cage into the floor somehow or am i dreaming?  any and all help is apreciated i have so much into the project already don t think its bad enough to justify starting over.

All Jeeps rust under the carpet. Catch it before it eats holes .. treat it with rust converter and then Hippo-line it (same stuff as box liner).

Chuck the carpet and use POR-15 on it, similar to undercoating but stops rust and you can paint it on directly over the rust.  After that's cured fully (approx. 7 days in +5 deg. weather) then sand lightly and box line it.

even on a unibody you can cut out the floor board if there are holes and reweld new ones in just make sure you tie it all back in to any brace that might be underneth it and then rino line it
