In this video I filmed from start to finish as I repaired the door sill on my 2009 Volkswagen Jetta Wolfsburg. This is by no means the “right way” to do the job. The only way to completely remove rust is to cut it out and weld in a replacement piece of steel. This video is for those of you who are sick of looking at a rust spot on your car and don’t want to spend the money at a professional auto body repair shop. In this video I explain the step by step DIY process of how to repair rust and paint your car, motorcycle, tractor, etc.

    Nice job, the only mistake you made was not applying a rust converter after the sanding job in order to stop the remaining rust. Otherwise looks good and should last a year or two.

    I would say this will work, but not for very long (usually few months to a year). The rust originates from a bare metal being exposed to moisture for longer period of time. Probably on the other side of the panel (for example, damp mud inside wheel arches, or from the floor behind front wheels, where all the debris are hitting it while driving). So first you should localize the cause of your problem, eliminate it (renew metal protection, etc), and then go after the resulting rust. Kudos for encouraging people to do such stuff.

    Not a bad quick job but long strokes side to side. Not all over the place. I don't even know how many coats you later cause you spray like a mad man. ???
