How do I fix rust and what do I do

there are alot of different ways you can approach this..  if the rust is too bad, then you will have to either replace the area with a donor piece, a piece from another car..  or you can simply weld in another piece of sheet metal.  if its mild rust.. then i would reccomend using a product called rust - mort. and it basically stops the rust in its tracks.. it is made by a company called SEM they make a bunch of really cool seam sealers. which would be another step you might want to take after stopping the rust. to seal off any rust.  but here is the link to the rust mort. http://www.sjdiscounttools.com/sem69508.html


um there is another product but i heard its pretty pricey.. where sem isn't all that pricey.. its called POR-15  here is the link to that. http://www.por15.com/

hope this helps..  if your on a low budget lol use coca-cola it works but not as good as these companies

I think POR-!% is worth the money, a little goes a long way.
Ive seen at least one new product that claims to work better than POR-15. I cant remember the name.
