What are you using to remove the underseal?

Oh and I recommend this stuff as a rust converter https://bilthamber.com/product/hydrate-80/ and then a cold galvanizing paint (high zinc content paint) or this https://bilthamber.com/product/epoxy-mastic/

In no particular order:
Scraper blade, heat gun, screwdriver, steel brush and a load of elbow grease.
I’ve been using this stuff which seems to be halting further rot:

Then some of this after aluminium mesh and metal epoxy resin has been applied and dried

Long term option = new sills and boot

Ah have used those multi tools with the scraper setting and the paint remover flap wheels.

Not used aquasteel so no opinion. But found the bilt stuff brilliant and from Essex.
