Thank you for this video. I am in the process of restoring my Dad's old truck that I inherited and had thought of using the liquid POR 15 and then sealing with Fiberglass and Resin over top but I have always heard that Fiberglass and resin won't adhere to metal in the long run. The POR products while getting hard remain stable on metal. This is a great idea where Welding may not be an option or even needed when structurally the metal is still strong. I have areas on the truck, similar and maybe even not as bad as yours that I wouldn't feel safe welding and this looks like a viable option to me. Thanks for sharing this. I appreciate it.

What is the best alternative to POR 15 to use? It seems to be unavailable locally or on Amazon unfortunately, and there is so many other options I have no clue what to pick as a beginner to this sort of thing. I was able to find the fiberglass cloth roll, but not sure what to use to fill in the holes now. Great video and instructions, I feel way more confident about attempting this now just trying to figure out what I should be using since I can't get ahold of the POR 15. I just have three small holes I would like to patch that are big enough to be a problem, just like what you showed in the video.

I agree John. Cutting, fitting, and welding is the best option.

Think about the guy at home who wants to get his car on the road, but can’t afford a welder, or who is too weak to cut and shape metal. This is a perfect solution for them. I appreciate you John!

If you were going to do that you should have used POR 15 on the hole floor first then Don that patch that way it ensures that there's no rust not covered. I have done that before just to see how it would work for a temporary fix until I could replace the part and it worked perfectly. But I rather replace the part for a true fix. And fiber glass and Resin doesn't even slow rust down. It just made it hard so you think it's fixed but the rust keeps eating away at it until the fiber glass can't hang on anymore. And I know this because I have done body work for over 21 years

Yes you can. You might want to add a large washer or band of metal to connect the mounting bolts on one side. You gotta worry about the seat falling through the floor if it’s bad, and the seat ripping out of the door if you had an accident or something. The tap would help distribute the load. Some seats have a nice wide track on top that has a big contact area. If that’s the case, then I’d add the metal to the bottom side. Something like a piece of flat metal 1” wide would be fine, and you’d be using the seat studs to pull it right against the pan.

have a couple of holes in my land rover floor from overflowing A/C drain vents backing up. (fixed that issue). Will have to remove the sill plates and pull the carpet up to get at the holes. There are screw hole metal grommets in the floor pan that the screws from the sill plate attach to. These are pooched in my case so I'll have to put new ones in. Will this fibreglass material with the POR15 patch material be strong enough to allow insertion of these new grommets?

I would think so, especially if you cross weave the layers. It will make a hard surface that you can drill through.

@@JustMoparJoe that's great! took things apart today and there are 4-5 holes. not good. using spray foam to make a base to lay the fibreglass and POR-15 into. I chipped off any of the loose rust pieces/layers and then treated the metal with a rust preservative. will the POR-15 patch adhere good to this rust preservative I wonder?

??? They say this stuff is sandable, but how long after you apply it can you sand it smooth ? Because i read someplace that if it cures its almost impossible to sand smooth . Anyone know how long after i apply it, i can sand it ?

I would say 24 hours. It’s very hard to sand. You might want a flap disc or you’ll be a while.

Hey everyone I am a noobie at working with rust. I have a question that I hope someone would answer. I had already put some rust treatment spray can stuff but it didn’t patch the pin holes like I thought it would. Can I put this stuff over it or do I need to sand it down. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

@@danielc9155 most spray can stuff will dissolve the rust. I like the permatex stuff that turns it to a purple hue. This goes well over that. Just allow a day or so to allow it fully cure before applying

When you wire brush metal this thin, it disappears. POR patch adheres to literally anything that isn’t oil or water. Buy some and try it.

Nope. It’s sealing in pin holes that could allow moisture to get to the new carpet insulation. It’s not worth cutting a full sized panel, and welding it in for pin holes. No structural repair here.

@@MrMrBigro I only did this in someone else’s car, after it lasted on mine for a while. If you double layer the fiberglass, it’s nearly impossible to stab through with a screwdriver. I’ve seen guys use fiberglass and resin. The resin separates from the metal after it rusts more. The POR attaches to the rust.
