A rock and a hard place. Well put. There is an out for this situation that gets far too little press and that is the combination of dipping and spray welding to rebuild those lacy panels to pre-rusty configuration.
Have often thought that most any dipper could add to his bottom line by getting in the spray welding service too.
One of our Zero Rust dealers in the Seattle area has built a nice business doing spray welding. any of you guys across north America have any experience with this technology? Absolutely great for bringing back old unobtanium panels in my estimation......
