Ultimate rust cure for your moggy....paint it brown, at least that way you dont notice the rust as much!!

Just to stick my two pennorth in- why not get a secondhand electric hvlp system off ebay- gives excellent results with cellulose or synthetic, much thicker application/ less patchy than spray cans, only needs a mains supply, fits in a carrier bag! (Apollo or Earlex make them). A lot of patience on a wing with spray cans, ok, but a whole car!!

I think is will do a bit and see how I get on, im gonna go down the aerosol and t-cut route, as I'm gonna do a full re-build in about two years, once my other car is done. she only needs a tidy up, I will post some of my findings as I get bits done.

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence of trying :-)

Sounds like a plan to me, aerosols will be fine if you just want some colour and temporary protection!
