Bulkhead removed

Today I bought an angle grinder from B&Q and set upon taking out my bulkhead and thus make a bit more room in the van for swivel seats. It didn't come out as clean as I hoped but as I just wanted it out .. out it came. The hot sparks became a serious issue as they went everywhere at speed. I have even heard of them chipping the windscreen whilst doing this job.
On reflection I would use a spot weld drill bit to do it neater.
After it came out and I grinded everything back neatly, I then used red oxide to prevent rusting and white Hammerite paint to finish it off.
