Doing A Little Work Today


Started working on some of the rust today

 
Used a corded drill and a wire brush attachment.

 
The rusty area before...

 
And after.


 
Went to the store and got some stuff.

 
Rust converter for the areas I hit with the wire brush, silicone for the holes from the seat bolts, and various screws. Before I paint it with the rust-o-leum, I am going to have to hit the entire floor with the wire wheel because of all the glue on the floor.

I got gloss black because if I don't use the entire gallon I will use it on other parts of the bus I'll be painting black.

 
 
Slow but sure. How do you like my purple seat with rollers. It worked great for me when sealing each hole.

 
I thought I would be able to paint by now, and thought I would just hit various areas with some paint, but feel it would be better to prep the whole floor and paint it with the rust-o-leum to be sure to protect the flooring.

I hadn't had the chance to work on DDH lately because of the weather and other things, but was happy to get this time. My next step will hopefully be prepping the floor and painting it. Then after that hopefully I'll be buying some construction insulation and plywood for the floor.
See Ya Later...
