Agree with M54, Dupont or PPG is the way to go (more durable and flexible... less headaches down the road), just make sure that the prep material they use is also Dupont or PPG... cuz some unscrupulous paintshops use substandard prep material and branded clear or base coat. Remember the most important step in the painting process is the prep.
With regards to your roof having rust, I guess you have no choice but to scrap to metal, just make sure that the shop knows what they're doing. Its ain't gonna be cheap, but you get what you pay for.

DON'T cut the roof and replace. Again, DON'T! Follow M54 Powered's advise. The structural integrity of the vehicle is compromised. I suggest that you add a little more so that you can get the whole vehicle repainted, including the other panels that does not need repainting (daw). Ikaw na bahala makipag usap sa insurance adjuster (yung nga ba tawag dun?).

Ok. Thanks guys. I've things are already finalized like paint, DuPont, my replacement parts for the damaged caused by the collision, etc. except if I want the whole car repainted or just the roof to eliminate that rust.

Lahatin mo na lang IMO. Scrape to metal and have the rust removed with a rust converter. Be sure to rinse that area as the rust converter residues may damage the new paint as well.

lahatin mo na dude, don't skimp on this process, its either all or nothing. why? so that the base coat and primer could be applied evenly. Down the road you will not regret doing this. BTW read theveeds link...
Choice I would have made as well.:nod:
2024 Innova Zenix 2.0 V CVT (non-HEV) vs Innova...
