Check for obvious deterioration or physical damage of the floor
pan.
Check for loose dirt and corrosion around the inside of the floor
pan reinforcement member access holes. This is the first indication that corrosion
may exist in hidden areas, and repairs may be required before the final
cleaning and protective treatment is performed.
Ensure that the drain provisions in the floor pan reinforcement
members are open. There are drain holes in the body side panel, the rocker
panels and the lower rear section of the quarter panels.
