Hello everyone,


I have a DG g35x 2005...
I am having alittle problem with rust invading my door panels. Since then it gives my car a older not maintained look

Does anyonee have a solution to remove rust on the panels?

thank you in advanced

 

Rust is like cancer for a vehicle. It must be cut out, or the panel replaced, in order to stop it. If it's very light surface rust that hasn't eaten deeply into the metal you might be able to sand it out, treat the area with a rust inhibitor found at your local auto body supply store, then prime and repaint the area.

Short term you could just paint over it, but it will continue to eat away at the metal under the paint until you have a bigger problem to deal with. This method is not recommended.

This advice comes too late for you for this particular issue, but for future reference it's wise to get touch-up paint on any paint chips a.s.a.p. to help prevent rust from getting a foothold.

 

Autoparts stores have an item that stops rust, not sure how it works but that's something worth looking into if your rust issue is minor.

ok in that case, anyone know where to buy the black door panels???

 

Wait... What's rusting? It sounds like you are talking about the interior of your car. Surely you don't have black doors on a DG sedan, do you?


Maybe I'm missing something...

 

nah... its on the exterior of the car. The black panels on the door moldings

 

pics?

 

Try some CLR (Calcium, Lime & Rust) its in a grey plastic bottle and you can get it almost anywhere... Lowes, home depot, walmart and so forth... I have used it before and it worked good for the things i used it in/on. just let is soak, it will/should kill the rust and keep it from coming back for a while.

 

Take it to the dealer. The car should still be under "corrosion" warranty. It's 7 years from the date the car was originally purchased.
