Wee bit more progress today. Started chiselling off the underseal underneath the boot floor- thats if you can even call it that, its thin and shitty. Underskitters. Anyway, chiselled most of that off and it hasnt been doing its job too well, there are various areas where moisture has leeched underneath it and started rusting. Luckily its just surface rust so some clean and strip discs have been ordered, similar to these

Theyre like big scotch pads, will hammer off any surface rust, paint etc but leave the surface underneath largely intact. Theyll gum up with underseal though, so just as well Im stripping that all off.
Also ordered some Gravitex, which is essentially the 1k version of the Raptor I bought. Goes on nicely with a Schutz gun and should give a fairly factory finish. Ill use some Dinitrol ML as a base coat as it has high adhesion and contains rust inhibitors so should keep the car in good nick for a long time!
Still need to find some rear arch liners though, which are MURDER to find for a Gti/Rallye/Quiksilver
