[1FatPony]

I have some surface rust and some little spots on my 66. Nothing serious but I dont want it to spread or come back. What do you recommend i use? I have heard of Rust Doctor. Any recommendations?

Were is the rust?

I like a acid etch for surface rust. Rub that around with steel wool. Doesn't heat the metal like sanding. For pitting I like sand blasting.

POR 15... go to the site www.por15.com and read about it, that stuff is reallllyy good for stopping rust

There are small amounts of surface rust around the windshield and back window. There are also some pitting in different places (roof, hood, etc)
por 15 is sounding good for what I need. It looks like they have a lot of good products.

Im putting down the POR15 on my floor pans and eveything soon bc i have the interior all gutted, then im going to top coat it with the chassis coat black. but yeah their products are really good

For the best autopainting advice on the web go to

read and ask questions. You need to treat the painting as a system. I'm not sure that you get good bonding of auto paints with POR15. While you are at that site, do a search for PickleX, it is their recommended product for rust conversion.
