    Repaired the dented chassis rail, never got it perfect but It's 10 times better.

    Tinted raptor liner applied. Looks different shades but It's just the light and camera. I went on a bit thick but spent most of my time rolling around on the floor getting tangled in airline.

    Rubbed engine bay back down for a few more coats of paint, no runs this time so I'm pretty happy. I've also started filler/body prep, still a long way to go.

    Just WOW. The attention to detail on this is superb, well done!

    Currently in the process of bare metalling, Epoxy Mastic and Raptor'ing mine and if it looks half as good as this I'll be dead happy!

    Keep the updates rolling :thumbup:

    Amazing attention to detail! Really good work. Whats your process for cleaning and removing the old underseal stuff and wax oil? Look forward to more updates

    Thanks for your kind words. Petrol and lots of old rags plus heat gun will remove the wax oil. For the vw rubber undercoating I found it easier to use a scraper and wire wheels in a drill. As you can imagine this job is the worst and very messy, just a case of getting stuck in and trying to switch off from the job in hand. Good luck.

    If the rust is just In the seam you should be able to open up the seam and sandblast the rust out. Depends how bad it is. Thanks for taking the time to read and comment.

    trouble is its right up underneath. theres various spots of rot in the screen surround too so I'll be able to fix is all up at the same time. one day, once I get myself a garage big enough to do it. I keep telling myself that anyway :lol:

    Before this golf I had a red mk2 driver, I did aload of welding to it but just got to the point when a better shell was needed. The rot around the scuttle travelled into the upper inner dash rail and was completely rotted out around bonnet hinges etc. Good luck with yours when you get round to it, do you have any pics on the forum of yours.
