Success I can take pictures again

Almost finished one large oval hole to fill

Joining the rope ends, was easy since I filled the hollow rope with 3M adhesive, and the cut off with my dremel, once the adhesive set up

20 minute cycle already taking rust off, hope you like the smell of vinegar b/c it could be overpowering

Not bad for little effort. One spot I may try to chip out with a center punch

They look great. Do you think the ultrasonic cleaner is helping the process?

Leads me to believe so, sorta beaks the chemical bond between the rusty metal and the base metal, couple spots it still stuck but as a whole I would call it a success, all I did was push a button

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

Only thing I would have done differently is add another gallon of vinegar so the part was submerged

I cheaped out it flashes over quick

This is the system I’ll be using to attach my high hump to the floor pan.

I didn’t want to scratch the paint so I used rubber sealed washers then the ss serrated flanged nuts will bite into the ss washers
