I searched the threads, but have not found exactly what I'm looking for.
A couple weeks ago, I noticed some rust on my driver side kick panel. Yesterday, I cut away the rot, but found the reason for the rust was the hole was filled with dirt. After further searching, I found the bottom of the door post was rotted, but the rest of it seems pretty solid. I didn't suspect this because the door does not sag and I don't have rust in other places.
My plan is to clean up the rust with a wire brush and then paint it with por-15 or rust bullet. Then I will patch over the rust spots. Patching the kick panel is easy enough, but I'm not sure how to patch the lower door post. Any ideas or suggestions on the bet way to patch the lower door post? Also, what's better for this type of work, por-15 or rust bullet?
