Re: Drip Rail Paint Cracking after 10 years a Restoration?
Thank you, I was wondering that myself. It's not horrible, I think, but there is at least a hairline crack all around. Then some light rust starting to bleed through in some of these areas. Then there are a few places (at the top only) where larger chunks of paint have come off - though oddly no rust there. Seems just because the pain has flaked off does not mean there will be rust (yet?).
If anything it is just worrying me and makes me wonder how much time do I have on my clock before I seriously have to get this fixed. I assume if there is rust coming up to discolor the white paint there is a ticking bomb about to go off!
I am not skilled enough to even think about digging out the sealer/re-sealing - not to mention painting. Might as well ask me to do open heart surgery ha!
