Haven’t heard of the paintable converter sealer. Sounds like you have it well and truly covered.

What can you do? Find a car that doesn't have rusted doglegs. Nice job. These things take time.

You are lucky your bus wasn't close by as I would had sneaked around with my angle grinder and relieved it of its dog legs

OMG I got off lightly LOL. All my seals are fine with the rust confined to the dog legs.

Unusual in my experience. Outer sills are practically a given on an original shell. I was lucky with my Ute. Fingers crossed. At least when you replace them you know they're good inside.

Another before and after shot. Ran out of gas so could not finish the inside section.
