Extremely rusty car sheet metal repairing

In this video I show the repair of the extremely rusty threshold in my car.
The car is a Mazda 323 2.0 DiTD from 2001.
It is commonly known that Mazda has problems with the rust on the sheet metal, so see this video how to fix these flaws.
I've spent about 5 hours of work in the repair for a few days, which can be seen in this video of 15 minutes.

It's his first repair job. You gotta start somewhere. List of possible ways to improve: - use heavier sheet (welding sheet that thin is difficult for even a seasoned welder) - make butt joints tighter - use magnets to hold the patch in place for tacking it - weld all the way around - get a DA sander - use a flex sanding disk on the grinder to feather out - Bondo isn't intended to be structural; use long strand fiberglass, or fiberglass mesh and resin to span gaps - use a 'cheese cutter' body file to rough shape bondo BEFORE it has fully cured. - use a long 'block' to retain a flat plane surface - sandblast, or use Por15 or other to 'freeze' rust, and slow it's return - That's all I can think of. Good for you for undertaking your first repair. One difference between my first repair and yours is I didn't show the whole world🤥

When I was a very young man, that was the only way that I could afford to do bodywork on my cars. It was inexpensive and strangely lasted for many years. I have since grown older and I now have all kinds of expensive welders and different types of sheet metal in my workshop. I am grateful for the prosperity that I worked so hard to attain. Life has taught me to fix almost anything and make it look professional as I finish. You will also aspire to where you want to be in life because you are not afraid to try. Good job young fella.

Leaving large gaps between the metal sheets will make the filler to crack at some point, therfore the repair is temporarily. The metal sheets must be well welded to the remaining body and cover the entire gap.

[@user-kr6em5dx8d]

Какой правильный комментарий.

[@FS-uy1no]

Quick tip for anyone welding thin sheet metal: Instead of trying to put welds in the space between the sheets, try welding onto the tack weld itself. It makes it harder to burn trough the sheet. Also, if your gonna weld all around a sheet like that take into consideration that the metal might warp and bend from the heat.

[@galehess6676]

stitch welds

[@FireRupee]

@@galehess6676 Right. Stitch, and maybe alternate between sides in order to allow the seams some time to cool.

[@loganely3617]

This technique also works with aluminum if u have a shitty rig

[@rusuclaudiu1988]

I am not a professional whatsoever. But when had the same thing I made it in two steps. One, I have added in the upper side one thin sheet of metal so the patch will sit on it. Made some holes through the rocker itself and welded through those small holes. All parts were treated with special welding spray for corrosion inhibiting. Then added the patch which was also drilled and made spot welds on the extra sheet. Only after made also spot by spot welding the entire panel with the air gun blowing cold air and never one near each other. One on the left one at the right and with closing the gap the time spent blowing air was bigger. I have considered the rocker panel has structural importance and therefore thought it made sense. Any welded part is not like a full sheet of metal. In the end I sprayed rust inhibitor inside the panel and after few days some special wax with a specially nozzle. Outside was sealed using 2k epoxy. 5 years has passed and believe it or not, I still do not have rust in that area.

[@murrayfun6097]

You really found worse repair videos? Can I see them?

[@oatz1878]

Need to weld those patches all the way round, then use a waterproof filler with fiberglass strand, especially in an area that may see water infiltration. Then finish coat with light body filler before epoxy primer and finish coats. It’s a good effort, and it will last a while, but definitely not permanent. Decent job considering. 👍🏻

[@MCTutorialsOnline]

Hi, thanks for watching. Thanks for suggesting on repair. I will consider this option in my next repairs.

[@3DPeter]

@@MCTutorialsOnline Next repairs? Are you selling these cars then? Dude, you should not repair cars because you are not suitable for the job because you don't have the patience, interest and therefor not the will to do it propperly. You have all you need to fix this job, except the sheet metal you used was way too thin, but all the other materials and tools are the same i use when i would do a cheap fix like this. So it's not the lack of knowhow but the lack of interest in fixing cars i see in this video, because you sure don't have any.

[@peterjohnson9438]

It's not what I'd consider a "permanent repair", but a 2001 Mazda 323 is not exactly a rare and valuable car that you restore in order to keep for the next couple of decades; it's a beater that just needs to get you through the next couple of months (or years). The repair looks adequate for that. In a couple of years, he can get something like a 2005 Mazda 3 for the money he'll get from the wrecker when he trades that in...

[@jamesjohnson1638]

Most of us obviously haven't taken the time to record and edit a video of ourselves repairing rust and upload it for everybody to criticize, so I have to give some credit for that. It does look great, but I'm definitely not a fan of this method and I don't think it'll yield any long term results. Ideally you'd have the patch fitting like a glove before any welding, then weld completely around the seam leaving no gaps. Personally I prefer to use "easy grind" wire because it'll leave a softer weld that's less prone to cracking paint/filler and is still workable.

[@andyc8826]

Please do not repair an old vw like that. You need to weld all the way round for a start.first you should cut all the rust out in a simple shape like a rectangle make your repair piece slightly bigger than your cut, make it the right shape if it fits on a bend etc, draw round your repair piece over existing hole, trim hole to properly fit the new piece. Then use magnets to hold piece in place. Weld tacks at a time going opposite each time and get the metal in line as you go along. Do not run a bead as the metal will warp and you will blow holes. When finished gently flat the weld with a flapper wheel. The only thing this guy did okish was clean the steel to weld to. It must be very very clean and free of paint and especially sealer anything that can burn will ruin any chance of a proper weld very little or no filler should be needed once finished a car is steel not a plaster cast 😂

The only thing I have to complain about was the music, other than that..don't listen to these comments. This was a cheap repair, that got the job done. It in no way interferes with the structural integrity or safety of the vehicle..so there is no 'danger' like some are saying. The only thing that could happen in the future is the piece of metal possibly falling off..but even then..not really a life threatening danger. I cant stand when people sit there and critique others in these rude manors, and they probably have some shit eating grin while they are doing it..I mean Were they there to fix it? were they there to buy the supplies? Do they want to send you the proper supplies or instructions to do it the way they want? The piece was so badly rusted, you really did not have a lot of options, but to remove the metal entirely like you did. I mean there was even people bitching about the way you grind the metal off..I mean are you kidding me??? I mean what do you all think he was going to do differently? its so fucking petty. These people do the job once, buy the most expensive products to fix the issue..then they think they have some kind of bragging right to go around and tell people how they should do it..because they did it that way and spent more money then they really needed to. Not to mention, this is all a professional shop is going to do anyway, granted yeah, they will take their time and make it look like its brand new and spotless..but your going to be out an extra $300-$400 for a repair on a piece of the body..that no one is going to see anyway. I have seen this shit first hand my self, case and point. I am out mowing the lawn one day, the new neighbor walks over..and tells me I should mow in straighter lines...get the fuck out of here ya old fart. You fixed/repaired the damage to the best your ability with the tools you had at hand, and what you could afford. There is nothing wrong with that, and frankly that is a major lesson and aspect of life today that is forgotten and spit on. Most important of all though, you were not boasting about any of it or bragging saying "oh you have to do it like this" So dont listen or take any of the shit people are saying you did a good job(excuse my FOUL language).

Yeah man, good job making this video, my repair will never be perfect either but neither is my car.

[@MrPabsUk]

You obviously don't know how structural rigidity works in a car & how vital the rockers are in the event of a crash. This is NOT "how 99.9% of shops would do it" at all. If this guy (or anyone he sells it to) are unlucky enough to crash this car, they will undoubtedly sustain more injuries than they would have done of it had been repaired properly. This is not petty, & this is why so many people are commenting about it. He had the tools to fix it to a reasonable standard, but he didn't.

[@ryedogg6767]

@@MrPabsUk I think you don't know what driving a shitbox is like. I've driven around in shit with rockers completely missing and holes in the floor. I scrap them afterwards. Most shitboxes hit the crusher after they get to this stage, a poorly patched rust hole is likely the least of this cars problems. At any rate I've done safeties on cars that I have failed because huge hunks of the frame are missing (Toyota trucks or GM A bodies have frame issues) I don't know what this car is but it's obviously a unibody anyway. Unibody cars are so shit that windshield and back glass give the unit structural rigidity and if you remove them and take the car over a bump or two the entire car will bend. Literally glass and glue is used for structural integrity. Anyways have a good time on the Bus/Train.

[@MrPabsUk]

@@ryedogg6767 I`ve owned over 200 cars in the last 3 plus decades & a good number of those were purchased as $100-500 shitboxes with failed tests &/or crash damaged, I`m a qualified mechanic & also do bodywork, including welding & I`ve done full blown, ground up resto`s. I`m not sure what your point is supposed to be about unibody construction, I mean, how many separate chassis cars are there these days? If anything your proving my point about the need for uncompromised structure in the rockers if you want to maintain any degree of structural rigidity, yet at the same time your giving this guy a pat on the back for a good job? I reckon I`d be able to kick that rocker straight through in under 2 minutes.. You wanna die a slow death, bleeding out from your crushed legs in a crash that wouldn't have been serious if the cars structure hadn't been compromised by poor quality repairs, then good for you, enjoy. And what percentage of people do these shit 3rd world repairs, then sell the the things to unsuspecting people? Oh, and I`ve not been on a bus or train since 1991. Have a good day..

What im saying

[@thekingsway295]

@@marvino7132 when the panel was cut out and the rust behind it was exposed it could have been treated with rust stop or encapsulator. Then his welds were only halfway done leaving large gaps and then it was covered up with body filler. This will most certainly rust from behind because of the air gap. It may look fine in a year, but you can bet it will be rusting until it breaks through again. Watch Fritzee's Fabrication channel here on YT.

I'm no expert, nor have I ever done this or even used a welder on anything under eight inch plate, but from other videos I've watched you should fill in all the welds and sand them down, then sand all the metal and some surrounding paint to touch up the metal, primer, then Bondo and then primer again paint and clear. I think you spent more time and effort with your Bondo than it would've taken to fill in the welds and use less Bondo tbh, but for a cheap repair on a car that is probably worth nothing aside from its ability to drive (I'm assuming that based on the rust) it's not really a big deal.
