Mopar Framerail Repair Cleaning

Before any repairs can be made, the area needing the repair and the surrounding area must be clean. In our case, we cleaned both entire framerails with a scraper, wire wheel, and lacquer thinner to remove the undercoating. This will take a lot of elbow grease if your car is undercoated. In our case, the car had factory undercoating, a layer of rust, and some heavily applied aftermarket undercoating apparently to try and help hold the frame together.
