Hi frank,

Do you suggest removing the fibreglass insulation all together?

Hans, you should remove at least 6" of the Fiberglas, up to the first
body moulding line. Leave this space empty or put Styrofoam in there, but do
not let it touch the floor sill. Also flood the floor sill after your done
cleaning and repairing with Krown or Rust-Check oil.
