I recently did the floors on a Super Beetle Convertible. They were pretty
bad, heavy rust and pitting, significantly weakening the metal, but only a
couple of pinholes. Because of my sceptic nature, I used CLEAR POR-15 and
didn't coat over it. Now the floors look like you poured fiberglass resin
over it, you can still see the surface and monitor the condition.
Unfortunately, after this job, the owner of the car installed a new top
($1500 installed, mine was $150...) which actually doesn't leak!!!
So now the floors are always dry and my experiment won't work. :(
I tried to clean some spills and the coffee can I had used for the stuff
and was impressed with how hard it was to get off.
