Do those spray paint that says can convert the rust to primer works?

Re: Finally I have a CRX

Re: Finally I have a CRX

HA

thats nothing that thig is in great shape

if you dont cut corners it will come out fine

take off the rear bumper it will be easier to fix the rust above the wheel wellsm check the support to see if its still good, if not get a new one, i coulnt find one anywhere except honda, im not sure what youd pay cause i have a connection at honda

is there holes in the rocker panel??

take all of the plastic trim off and make sure there isnt rust

dont get discouraged, trust me my car was much worse and i fixed it

i had to replace my entire passenger side rocker panel so like i said mine was much worse

Re: Finally I have a CRX
 

Hi , i saw your thread , mad skills man... props to you.... well on the rocker cover there is a hole in the middle if u see closely.... when i was flaking it off i try to knock it to see how bad was it and it poked a hole on it with my screw driver.....*sigh*

well i would want to fix it but i would really want to know how much is it..... this is sort of my daily driver/beater car so if it cost a lot to fix the rust . most probably im just not going to.... would like to know on a condition like this how long this car will last me before it rust to hell...... any idea? i plan to use it for another year or two......would appreciate your advise if i should leave it as is or fix it since im goin to sell it 1 ot 2 years later.

Re: Finally I have a CRX
 

where do you live and what is the climate like?

Re: Finally I have a CRX
 

live in kansas.... there is 4 seasons here...... winter , fall , spring , summer......

so should i just leave it as is? or can i just buy those spray called POR-15 and spray over it?

how much is it to buy a grinder and which one is consider just good enough for sanding/grinding/cutting purposes?

Re: Finally I have a CRX
 

if you really like the car and want to keep it get a quote from a body shop theres probably only 4-5 hours of labor there so i bet it would be abour 350-500 to fix, a small price to get more years out of it
