Preventing a very small rust spot from spreading.


Recommended Posts

Interesting that the section appeared when this question came to mind. My cousin has a 99 LTZ. At the front of the hood on the little lip there is a small rust spot about half the size of a dime. What steps can he take to help prevent it from spreading.

I'd say sand it down, prime it and paint it as best as possible.

After you sand it down, put some phosphoric acid (rust jelly) on it for a few minutes to neutralize any tiny rust you missed.
