Yeah, not a fun job for sure. I’ll look into the differences between the red scotchbrite and the green, I’m guessing the red is more coarse? I’ve heard so many mixed reviews about rust encapsulators, but I think the majority of problems are from painting over it. The only thing I will do is add sound deadener inside the doors. Thanks man.
