No, it was more like a metallic duct or exhaust repair tape that was literally taped over the seams that had rusted through and then had rattle-can bed liner sprayed over. Quite a "repair", but you did have to look close to see it because of the thickness of the spray on liner. This was done between the inner bedsides and wheel wells in the bed, and also the full length of the driver side floorboard at the door sill. Somebody had also replaced the driver rocker, but just ignored the inch-wide, foot-and-a-half long chunk of floorboard that was rotted away right behind it so that the new rocker was really only attached at the front and back of the door opening. Except for that lovely metallic tape that was covering the whole thing.
