Hmmmm, well I was asking because I did some rust in my car myself, I wanted to save some money and its just an older hyundai excel so doesnt matter if the finish doesnt look perfect. I did some of it a couple of years ago which has come back but other parts I did haven't returned, for sure the bits that have come back have had more water tho, one bit in particluar was really bad where water was pooling on the boot floor again (It took me a while to notice that it was leaking again DOH!!!!) so in theory hopefully if I remember to check more regularly that the boot isn't leaking then maybe i'll get a lot longer out of this round! Hopefully anyway coz it sure is a sucky job to do!
