This is step by step instructions and visuals on the technique I used to repair my rusted out rocker panels on my 2006 Chevy 1500, this is a common technique used by many,(CHEVY PROBLEMS). The material cost is roughly 100 dollars if you have your own tools, which will beat the cost of replacement panels for nearly 300. and if you do not have a welder to install them it can become costly... so here is my repair and the footage from this project......HOPE YOU ENJOY...…...and can possibly do this repair yourself...

Done this a 100 times for inspections... pro tip. Leave a weap hole for moisture and use a rasp after bondo hardens to get closer to final shape for sanding ... good vid bro

I tried to use spray foam to fix a large hole on the tail gate of F-150 2010 but it did'nt and that cost me $24 so I decided to use 26 guage sheet metal and rivet and its working out just fine. In my opinion spray foam is best for small hole but not large area like rocker panel. I am gonna use heat duct sheet metal for the rocker panel. I am going to use water and salt welding in some areas, I have all kinds of rusts, small, medium, top, bottom you name it, I got it all. 🥵

I just learned that spray foam molds and plastic sheet will help shaping the Bondo body filler into curves nicely.

Good job, and the elevator music was a nice touch. Almost dozed off a few times.

@gimmemic1263 Год назад

this is GENIUS - who would thought the spray foam would work well enough to bond to Bondo and seal the hole completely using Bondo body filler on large holes - you almost dont even need to concerned with using wire mesh or Bondo hair

No it not it's a moisture trap

@JoseFuentes-lr3rs Год назад

best one i seen DOPE !!!!!!

@seigneurduquebec7337 Год назад

I believe it traps the moisture that is already inside. Probably not so good, but if it’s an old truck, better do that than spend thousands on a new metal sheet.

@grandanbarbee7460 2 месяца назад

Highly recommend a good rust reformer and after painting about 3 coats of clear coat!!! Otherwise solid if you don't have access to a welder and can't afford 1000$ for body work.

@daxinventor3542 3 месяца назад

Moisture might hold between the outer and inner panels rusting both faster. I would use it on an old truck that I was going to use for junk work.

Spray foam is like a sponge not sure this will last long

@FreshSav Год назад

Pretty cool. The more time you spend, the better the result. I was looking at this for shyts. I'm a welder by trade. With the stamped rockers/cab corners available for relatively cheap(>$150 USD per side) you could easily fix your cab corners for under $800USD - and that's with the cost of picking up some crappy welder.

@larry40 11 месяцев назад

True but some people dont have access or skill to weld in new ones and as they mostly are for looks anyways this is a viable fix albeit temporary, the only thing I would have done different is before applying the foam soak the inside of the rocker or cab corner with rust stop or converter liberally after you have knocked the loose stuff and sanded or wire brushed it off then if possible spray undercoating on the inside then foam and use short strand fiberglass filler first then use bondo for the finish as the glass is stronger and fairly easy to work with, mine has lasted for 7 years so far .

@@trevinogodfrey8002 yeah, don't be afraid to do it. Clean everything up blow it out fill it full clean it off and skim it with duraglass. It's quick fix and depending on how bad your situation it can last who knows how long. Hell, back in the old days they would fill holes up with newspapers and put a gallon of mud in it lol.

Cutting corners on a deat trap in a collision everone knows that youvare going to by the car so people always bring a magnet and feel the rocket panel if the magnet doesn't stick then you know in a collision that car will fold like a slice of bread with you inside... The rocker panel is the main structure of a car...

@llamaslife619 4 месяца назад

NO CUTTING CORNERS acually building corners !! 🤣🤣🤣🤦🤦 if u could see the video THERE IS NO STRUCTURAL SUPPORT THERE. Hense the reason leading to fill with cheap alternative ..

@nathanc1458 10 месяцев назад

Is there any hydrophobic foam on the market? Or what if you pre treated and totally sealed all the existing metal before spray-foam-forming begins...? Moisture absorption wouldn't resume oxidation to totally pre-sealed metal work, no??? I dunno?

@nimitzopsoi Год назад

Can you use fiberglass over the spray foam

@llamaslife619 Год назад

Yes you could it would do just as good of a job or make sure u got a good thick layer of bondo ..to thin and it will chip off ...

@user-fl6wi5xr1f 5 месяцев назад

But is this safe, structure wise? I cant afford the body shop prices, but i want my truck to be safe if possible

@llamaslife619 5 месяцев назад

Safe enough to cover RUST that is more dangerous than the foam :) 2 years going on 3 still solid few spots needed touched up I would deff use wire MEsh with the bondo that was my only mistake ..

I better get my ass outside asap and do my rocker pannels before they get big holes in them like this!!! So far its just mostly surface rust. I got the bondo, primer and paint. Just been waiting on a nice day since I live in the northeast. Which doesnt help within itself now they use all this liquid salt on these shitty roads.

@jamesward5721 Год назад

This is why I spend hours pulling foam out of customers rusted sills before I can weld in new metal. The foam traps even more moisture, making things ten times as bad.

@jamesward5721 Год назад

@@jacobgreen6939 Because it just keeps rusting under the foam, under bedliner, under paint - you have to take a totally different approach than that which 90% do. I know as it is my full-time work.
