Re: [DML] Frame Repair

[Dee Moats <Dee-Moats@xxxx>]

Bill you can plate over the area with the rust or cut it out and weld a
piece in its place. If the integrity of the frame is not compromised by the
cut out. One of the problems with epoxy coated steel is that any breach
intensitifies the corrosion problem. Good luck! Dee Moats 4434
