Thanks. I do have a spot blaster, I had previously blasted the full drip rail before I took the top skin off. I was hoping to get away with not using it due to how slow and nasty it is for large areas. I did find 2 pin holes hiding in the pitted areas, really close to the weather stripping inside. Ill probably start the blasting and see how it goes and cross my fingers more don't show up.
