Rusted Screws and Ryobi Hex Impact Screw Driver
This little rusted bugger will not budge. Other than thru the aluminum, it grips into wood.

Appreciate ideas.

I use a battery impact screwdriver to remove screws that are difficult to break loose but if it refuses to budge, leave it alone.

It doesn't appear that the end caps are pulling way, the adhesive is still working fine and the screw adds little or no strength..
I would clean things up, the treat the rusted screws with a little Naval Jelly and seal the seams with 5200 FC, before touching up the paint.
