the rustoleum freeze and release will also work super on it:

A Freeze and releaze from Loctite to freeze the bolt and chrink them and it
also contains greace to speed thing up without damaging the thread in the
door. and to get it back on, I would use rivits because the stainless steel
bolts that you used will actually cause rust because of the contact RVS
with metal. you’re also using the weong bits because that will also cause
the heads of the bolts to rust. on RVS you need to use RVS bits.
Yep.. haha addictive!. Yes true on what you said. I just found the grease
works pretty good. If you do this on a boat in the ocean, it will not last
because seawater conducts electricity well. Just putting on a heavy
waterproof wheelbearing grease worked good for me in the past as far used
in an automotive application. The Land Rover is definitely worth restoring
🙂 🙂
i used a grinder with a thin disc and made a groove for a flat head
screwdriver on the bolt and it came off
@syyenergy7 it has to do with the contact with the metals which cause a
current and will cause rust over time. even in dry places or even inside.
I’m bussy restoring a 60 year old defender right now to 🙂 once you get
started, you can’t stop he? 🙂
You did use penetrating oil right?
Yes. Every trick in the book. Part of the problem is that those bolts are
Phillips head type. Just figured I’d pass on how well this little tip
works. Even a person that runs a bobyshop did not want to mess with taking
those out.
I know about potential problems with dissimilar metals. I used a waterproof
grease. That worked before on other things and held up. They are all
changed out now with no thread damage. On a boat you really should watch
fasteners using dissimilar metals. For this, I doubt it will have a problem
since I also used a lot of waterproof grease.
