I have purchased a REALLY nice OEM windshield frame. Not rusted out anywhere, Essentially rust free. Don't ask what I paid. No, not from Rudy nor was the price anywhere near Rudy's. I believe in buying the best OEM parts I can find and I don't mind paying for them, but I won't bend over.
So, the part was shipped to me minus the glass with the factory rubber cowl gasket and hinges. No rust underneath the gasket! No rust inside the frame! No rust under hinges. All the wiper parts in place and looking great. I am a lucky man.
There is a seam along the bottom edge (inside the cowl gasket) where the outside and inside sheet metal come together where I can see some rust. I've taken a picture of the worst spot, but there's no rust-through. The windshield will be stored for a while before paint etc. What should I do to bring the rust to a halt in this seam? I've thought of spraying with Kroil.
