Mazda Bongo, touching up Ulrika's body (work)

[@jimbowhite8004]

Really good descriptive video. Looking forward to attempting mine soon.

Many thanks for watching and commenting, glad you liked the vid but Bongo's are renowned for rusting from the inside out. It's best to tackle a small spot as soon as possible as what can look very minor can be a bit more so when you start digging. Stay safe and well, SIR, cheers, Schnuz.

I enjoyed watching that job. It seemed to go well and certainly tidied her up. Nice one cheers mate 😎👍

[@Schnuz]

Many thanks for watching and commenting and at least she is watertight and shouldn't rust any more at that point. I thought I might do a second video on re touching the top coat but to be honest it looks far better on the video than it does in real life as the KZbin video is only 1080P (max upload quality). Stay safe and well, ICAN, cheers, Schnuz.

You have more patience than me schnuz j wouldn’t have even attempted it😂 Excellent job mate👍👍👍

[@Schnuz]

Many thanks for watching and commenting, I was used to repairing and patching up older models from years ago so when the slightly aging Ulrika came along it was natural to just start fiddling with her bits 😜. Stay safe and well, ICAN, cheers, Schnuz.

Nice job! Very informative! Cheers!

[@Schnuz]

Many thanks for watching and commenting, older models need a bit of TLC if they aren't going to cost you even more of a fortune 🤣. Stay safe and well, ICAN, cheers, Schnuz.

im assuming this is your first attempt at bodywork.

[@Schnuz]

Nope, I've done lots of body work repair and there are lots of techniques that can be deployed but they are all variations on a theme, bend the edges inwards, attach some support behind and then fill to above surface level and sand back. Above all use decent rust conversion and zinc based paints to prevent the rust reappearing. Stay safe and well, ICAN, cheers, Schnuz.

Worse job ever,,😛

[@Schnuz]

Many thanks for watching and commenting, much appreciated and you are almost correct 🙄 . It was a very piss poor final coat which I was very disappointed about but unfortunately I ran out of decent weather to finish the job off, the main problem of having to do jobs outside 🙁. Stay safe and well, ICAN, cheers, Schnuz.
