Painting aluminum body panels (touching up)
Discussion
Hi Guys
This is the first time I have posted on this section of piston heads but I have read quite a lot of posts.
I am currently working through the rust on my Discovery and whilst I'm happy with the process of painting the parts I have welded I'm not so sure about painting aluminium panels.
There are some spots on the car where the aluminium has corroded and the paint has flaked off. Some is due to galvanic corrosion.
I'm not after an invisible repair but would like it to look ok and be protected from further corrosion.
Does anyone have any hints or tips? (or maybe a link to a guide)
All advice appreciated
Thanks Jack
