UPDATE 71 dart swinger rot pics
Here is some of my work. dusted is correct, you want to cut out the old metal and weld in patches. Some filler is ok over the surface once the rust is gone. Treat any hard to reach areas with OSPHO.
I cut panels larger when possible and use the Eastwood flange vise grips to flange the patch to over lap on the underside.
My angle grinder died(good thing to, it was dangerous)so this is as far as I am on the roof seam.
It looks like Frankinstein becuase I cut my patch into pieces to fit it better and I needed to cut more rust out that I noticed.
