Got a bit more work done today. Arches had been bubbling and as much as I tried to clear them up, the rot came back through the paint so I've decided to remove the source and get those god awful rear arch liners out the way. Given the arches a good clean but god the screws for the liners were knackered so had to rip the liners out, what a mess! Gonna get some hammerite under there, prime it and paint it!

Arches are both in similar condition not too bad but the bottom of the arch is a different story....

This worries me a little, it's the same story on the other side in the same place. A screw driver or hammer would bring this right off, anyone know if this is an MOT failure or is it okay? It was only MOT'd in march and needed welding underneath but they never mentioned these parts, mnd you the liners were on then! The strut mountings themselves are clean no rot, but this section is all flaking will hammerite fix, or at least stop this? What's my best option?
