rich9001 Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Hi all, I fitted some arch liners last week and while I had the wheel off I noticed some rust forming. Is it worth getting the wheel back off, cleaning the area and getting some hammerite on there? (que a possibly silly question, would i be safe to use an electric sander to remove the rust?)

Ridz Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 If you do decide to go ahead and clean up the affected area,after sanding off the surface corrosion, you may wish to use the Bilt Hamber range of anti corrosion products. http://www.bilthamber.com I use the Hydrate 80 on my Zeds rear arches and can recommend their products.

veilside z Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I would wire brush then key the area, then treat with Anti Corrosion and seal with Hammerite or other. Quote
Richf Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I wouldnt use hammerite , i'd go for the BH stuff or POR15 Quote
GreenLandy Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Don't use hammerite, it's complete rubbish and comes off in sheets almost quicker than you can paint it on Quote
Gudzy Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Just seen this, I still have the arch liners which you could of had. The last time I took it in to Lockwood and Greenwood I asked for them to be refitted but they didn't want to attach them as that bumper is missing some of the fixing points. Quote
