Its been about 2 years and my Morso 7qt oil pan was a little rusty. I sanded down the whole thing inside and out, painted the out side of it but the inside had some surface rust that I sanded most off. I was wondering if is ok to use it stll has a little rust color but its real smooth and if I rub on it nothing comes off. What do you think.

i don't think that will hurt as long as it is just light surface rust
