Can do, just helps keep the cost down. This one took two days longer to strip than expect due to seized and rusty bolts! If you want to fully strip and use a sled/trolley to transport then let me know. ---

Haz, what brand of Zinc primer do you use? I might have some front subframe bolts. Aftermarket but work perfectly fine. @la21t had some off of me. I’ll check stock. ---

Non in particular, whatever weld through aerosol the paintshop sends. I tend to just use it on small bits when wanting to crack on. I prefer etch as it bites into the metal rather than sitting on top. Good stuff, I may have spares but would prefer new. Any luck with the rear arm bolts? ---

This has been left to the side for quite a while so I’ve pulled my finger out again. Unfortunately certain bits hadn’t been finished so rust had returned on a few areas so once again back to derusting. Due to the lulls the plan is to clean up what was left good and tackle a few other areas in an attempt to get things sealed off and closer to paining incase there’s another lull! Main good areas cleaned up and recoated ![IMG_0356.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/2/2/2291a10cf754f97aa5fd07101b4a32dfbb43f2b6.webp) Gravitex to all good areas

This welder is very hit/miss on looking nice, good job there’s always filler on top! Erm, I suppose so once I get into it. There can be lots of boring prepwork and thinking beforehand but the final result can be rewarding. By far the worst I’ve worked on! ---
