My 1980 CA truck had some minor rust and small hole under driver's mat from water getting trapped. It is not possible to purchase Dry Ice (seriously without a permit) here in Switz. My Fein Mulitmaster (great tool) with the chisel attached does a great job of cutting through that old insulation/ tar like material on floor, firewall, seat. Many hours later and sore hands I have now removed everything from the drivers side and will use rotary wire brushes to prep and got the POR15 from the UK (yippee). My original plan was to do the same to passenger side. However, the passenger side is perfect (no sign of rust)- just that insulation with grooves. Truck only has 60k miles and looks great but am I doing anything wrong if I do same (remove insulation) etc. to passenger side as it detracts from "originality"? The insulation which curves over the seat area has cracks from age and I don't think looks nice so my plan was to strip all this as well and drive WITHOUT mats. Any advice if I should put down some kind of epoxy paint on top of POR15 to make the floor tougher? My plan was to get it painted the same yellow as original Thanks guys, Ed
