This is also in a thread in "exterior" called the rust report.

I thought it was important enough to post here.... I think you might too, if you dont want your aveo to rust out behind the front rear wheels....

Alert! Northern owners....

I cleaned out my inner front fenders today....holy cow, I couldn't believe the amount of packed in dirt!!!

See the pics! This area will surely rust through if this is left unattended. Might take a few years, but watch and see.

I'd suggest taking the lower 2 or 3 bolts out and spraying with high pressure water.

I went balistik on mine and cleaned them with my hands and some tools, even an old toothbrush to really it clean. Then I smeared some old wax I had all over inside of there.

Don't use anything that will scrape the paint, or you'll be in for big rust.






Yes, thats something sprouting on this pile...
