Re: 72 C20 Miss Olive

Notsolo,
Thank you. I went back and welded a bead with .024 solid along the length of the gap, where the tack welds show in the pic. I'm pretty focused on moisture paths, and would like to keep everything as sealed up as I can make it.

I'll learn up on Sika Flex. I figure I'll go with POR 15 for the underneath post welds? That's what the black line is, on the floor seams. I wanted to get something in there, where the sandblaster couldn't clean out everything. I POR 15'd the corners, under the dash (a rust film was setting up there) and where I'd made repairs difficult to paint.

The 2 part epoxy seam sealer I've used on the drain channel kicked my butt, I wasn't fast enough to pull the tape before it set. It set quick! Now I have a little edge on my seal, where the tape lifted the edge. Is the 3m 5200 more forgiving?
