Surface Rust on Door...Options - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Pulled the door on 72' K-20 as I start the restoration. Bottom rusted out, patch panels are on the way.

Question on surface rust -- there were several scratches in the paint that led to rust developing on the door. I've sanded most down, but there is still some pitting.

This truck is going to be a driver.

Would a good 2k epoxy primer as my base seal things up and prevent rust from advancing?

What are your recommendations? Thanks, Daubs
