Got my drivers sill done last week. Purchased a couple of sills and decided to chop one up and do a proper repair back to solid metal.
First time I’ve tried this way of removing spot welds, vertically grind with a finger file and peel off before dressing it back and spraying with weld through etch primer.
I’ve since painted both ends of the sill so it looks presentable but not perfect. The weather wasn’t with me so it was being painted in the rain with a slight covering of plastic.
Car finally got its mot on Saturday and my Cooper sold on Weds so this one is now all legal. £20/yr tax too!
