Here's a pretty clean looking door
All that rust was just surface and I lucked out

There is factory caulking around the outer perimeter of the door, that stuff needs chiseled away because I found a lot of rust underneath it

Wow I must be slow. I just noticed the two sets of tits on the front bumper.

Just like real, natural ones...the left one is a bit bigger. ;)

(they were the first thing I noticed...lol)

Lacquer

using black lacquer from my lounge thread where I posted a thread comparing different brands and quality of gloss black.

we are using this in areas **not** on the exterior so we make faster progress.  the exterior of the door shown still needs attention.

we are going to do a normal auto paint process on the exterior.

Peelback some carpet today and found some minor corrosion so it looks like the interior has to get gutted now
