Hi all
I purchased a new to me 2006 Adria Twin a couple of years ago. It had a bike rack on the back, but I don't have a bike so I took off the rack leaving to the two support rails in place. I thought this wouldn't be a problem, but, where the rails go round the corner of the door they have gone rusty. The rust is really quite bad and it's running down and staining the paintwork.
At one stage I thought of putting the rack back on, but it won't cover these wrap around parts!
What I'm wondering is:
Should I take the rails off the van? But then the holes that were drilled in the rear door will be exposed!
Or, should I clean up the rust, how??!!! and then paint it with something?
Anyone experienced this before??
Thanks
Yvonne
