bed removal/rust work

[ob269]

So I finally pulled my plastic bedliner and there is 'some' rust at the front of the bed by one of the bolts..
Where the wavy layer of the bed lays in the bottom, is that removable so that I can see how bad it is under it?

I don't think you can separate any Part of the bed without drilling the rivets out :/

are there pictures of this rust? so studies and evaluations can be conducted by your peers?

Alright any ideas on how to repair the rust before it eats through the front corner of my bed?

Lol. I'll go take a pic but I'm at work and will have to 'mobile upload' through photobucket and that will take a couple hours..

Wire wheel it, then use a rustoleum paint

This ^ I believe they sell an actual rust preventative paint, so if you could find that you'll be good.

He can get quarts of it for under 50.00 on ebay

Ah, wire brush duh.. I've been feeling like **** lately and can't think for some reason..

You can also use a grinder with a rust/paint stripping pad like this

Yeah I have close to the same thing Clinton but for a drill instead of grinder.. its like a brillopad on steriods?

And I might have to but some por 15..

Yeah a roided up brillo pad but they rock man! You can use the ones for the drills, just doesnt go fast enough to grind it quick so it will take a little longer but you'll be good
