rear arches again

[spark]

Ok so the puma has always suffered from
the cancer we call rust, I've had mine professionally
repaired and removed the carpet inner liner.
Ofcourse the dreaded rust is creeping through again.

There is not alot that can be done except welding new metal
in to the arch.
So what I've been thinking is if the body shop sand it all
do :lol: wn and treat the rust as they claim, then if i did the same
but also put a final layer of fibreglass, before primer and paint.
Surely that should stop it forming if both goods lip and ottter was done.

Obviously id re underreal the lip and inner arch.
Any advice or help appreciated for me and others

better off in the long run just replacing the whole panel with a non-rust varient.

I bought my puma which and clearly just had the arches sanded and sprayed .. bit bodged.. but it only lasted about 6 months and now its pretty bad...If your gonna keep the car for a while, get the propa job done first time round.. your'll only regret it later on..
