One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.

For rust on a painted part your best to get it blasted and get it done right, you'll spend as much on rust removal products.

If you are going to do it yourself you need to strip the paint because there'll be rust under it that the remover won't get to if you leave it.
