i dont know if anyones interested but ive had a brain wave about stopping rot developing in arches.
because the rear arches of maestros are made of two seperate skins and unfortunatly only held together on the outer lip with pinch welds. (i dont know the technicle name for this type of welding, dumbass) lol
therefore there is small gaps between the welds between the two arch skins.
i dont see why i couldnt use clear silicone to fill these small gaps on my arches. that would stop any damp crappy stuff getting in.
could anyone tell me if this method would be successful or tell me any other ways to fill these stupid little gaps.
im thinking about this because the arches on my ledbury maestro are good and i want to keep them that way for many years to come.
help appreciated because bodywork is not my strongpoint.
