Door Rust
Door Rust Ok, I have a 95 Z28. The body is in great shape. It has been garaged most of it's life. Spent its first two years in OH, then went to South Carolina for 3 years, and then in San Diego area ever since. The last 6 months I have had to keep it outside because I live in an apartment. It is covered by either a car cover or a covered parking spot 80% of the time. The paint is starting to crack a little in the nose. Today I noticed two liitle spots of rust in the door by the foot boards. They are only the size of a pen tip. What is the best way to control this before it gets out of hand? What about the cracking paint? It is not severe, the paint is not chipping, I am just starting to see the little crack lines. I have heard that you can use a heat gun and rub it with a leather glove. This sounded kind of dangerous, that I might really **** it up. Any help?
Could be flakes of metal from a grinder that got imbeded into the paint surface if the car has spent any time in a body shop. I had theese in my drivers side window and didn't discover them untill I got the windows tinted and I noticed rust spots on the glass. The window tint guy says he sees it all the time.
