How do you repair rust holes in a car roof?
Can I fix a rust hole on the top of my car? It's an older vehicle, and I've noticed that rust holes are starting to appear on the roof.

“Fear not! You can do this repair yourself with a fiberglass repair kit.
Here’s how:
- Cut away as much rust as possible from the hole in the roof.
- Grind the area around the hole.
- Use a fiberglass repair kit to fill the hole, then sand it down.
- Paint the fiberglass with touch-up paint or spray paint.
Since you have an older car, consider getting a
roadside assistance membership
so you’ll never have to worry about being stranded. Jerry
