Title: Rust spots Post by: Pixel on June 16, 2016, 10:19:13 am How would one go about dealing with small (quarter-size) rust spots on the painted part of a machine? Is there some sort of auto-body touch up paint that could be used?
Title: Re: Rust spots Post by: Jim on June 16, 2016, 02:10:08 pm You have to get rid of the rust; if you do not, it will continue to expand and create more problems or just get bigger spots...
Title: Re: Rust spots Post by: Pixel on June 16, 2016, 03:33:23 pm So I would sand the rust off, then what? Do they make a touch up paint I can use?
Title: Re: Rust spots Post by: Slapshot42 on June 16, 2016, 09:57:18 pm You could use a small wire wheel on s dremel tool to grind the rust back to bare metal. They sell inexpensive expoxy aerosol primer . Before priming you could use a rust inhibitor like por 15 or rust mort. From there add body filler , primer, block it with sandpaper, and paint it.
