If your rust hole is that big, let the foam cure for a day before cutting/ shaping it. If it’s still bouncy it’s still expanding . Then place the bondo once dried. This “tutorial “ is honestly the best way to save. Do it the proper way and it will last you a very long time!
That will last maybe 5 months. Go to junk yard chop out those rocker sections out of a junker with less rust damage. Cut out existing rusty rockers of your car then weld new ones in. Then that’s a 20 year fix.
theres a lot of vids out there kinda showing the same technique but yours is the best ive watched by far - "squirt a little on her face for good measure " LOLLL
I'm so glad I live in the South below the snow belt. Folks up north don't believe me when I tell them we don't have rust problems like this here. I have a 1988 Volvo with ZERO rust and a 92 GMC van with ZERO rust.
@davidgrason It depends where you live in the south. Humidity level is important! Low level = good, high level= shit! The Amazonas forest is also the south. Drive a car there for 1 year and you will be surprised how many rust you will found!
Lol at all the people offended by curse words. I didn't even notice. People are too damn sensitive! They're just words grow up. They say people that curse are more honest anyway
When you look at the Australian standards on rust repairs There is a good loop hole All the has got to be covered to have the car passed for the roadworthy pink slip and right to go
It is nearly Halloween and there is a Horror Movie marathon on…. After 6 hours.. it is less of a hack job than this.. but do what you gotta do.. a lot of body shops in my area won’t fix rust at all.. they say it always comes back and don’t want the liability and headaches. As long as it isn’t structural.
as much work as you put into this, and how obvious this "repair" is after its complete, you could have actually cut out the rust and repaired it correctly with metal. even if you didnt weld the stuff you could have body bonded the metal and at least it'd last more than 4 or 5 months.

'Let's see if we can fuck it up'. Can't stop laughing.

i like the cardboard forms. good tip
I was wondering how long your repair lasted before it may have started to break apart or rust reappeared? Thanks for replying!
Not sure
I know a guy who repaired a crack in the trans casing of an ‘89 Ford Tempo with great stuff, an the sneaky lil’ fkr is still runnin today
Good idea !!!
Rust will come back in no time ,, you need to get rid of all the Rust ,, it will only last about a week before rust starts showing up again
Now I'm gona put wings on my boat 🤣
What do you mean wings on your boat ?
I’d pay to see that.
It’s been 4 months, you working on it still ?
I actually sold the corrolla
yup I knew it could be done...fixing my car door soon
Why did you bother with the foam and bondo, you could have just painted over the cardboard and duct tape.
Ya sure. After a rain the cardboard will be falling off the rocker panel like a soaked witch.
The cardboard was only there as a support until the spray foam dried
Hey how long hold it?
Lol at all the people offended by curse words. I didn't even notice. People are too damn sensitive! They're just words grow up. They say people that curse are more honest anyway
Do u have to put the cardboard on there or could u just spray the foam into/onto it without the cardboard
The card board was so that the sprayfoam didn't ooz out . Smaller holes may not require
Hell yah worked on my 99 Ferrari
This is the best video of 2023
Thank you
hehehe "high quality duct tape" lol
Dont even think i was using duct tape brand lmao
@@MaritimerMitch lol
Classic!
Its not a car now, its a boat 😅
How did it hold up?
Round 2 lets f this up -lol
That must be red neck body shop.
Well we don't need the four letter words in a RUclips video but that's a great idea I like it I think I'll do it on my truck
Potty mouth I am
Great 👍job

My car was so rusty. My car car is now floating. I just open the trunk and clamp a 9.9
Tape wax paper on inside of cardboard so foam doesn't stick

Some peanut will be The New will not knew owner The difference if some shit hot mentel did the job
