Been looking at pictures of my car when i got it last august and basically theres a tiny patch of rust on my arches n thats it!

just been to the garage, where the fook has all this rust n blistered paint come from?!!! i hate winter! :evil:

either way its getting to a point where am concerned about the integrity of my arches, or at least i will be if i leave it, but i also have the small issue of a distinct lack of cash and as i need new tyres and my suspension need a attention i want to put the rust issue on the back burner.

so i was wondering how to set about sortin the rust to stop it getting worse so i can save up to get it done right back end of the summer? i aint too bothered how its gonna look, i just want to stop this cancer before it eats my car alive.

anyone got a guide or a few tips to swing my way?

cheers

could try using dinitrol it will slow it down some. but the rust usually starts in the seams and spreads from there. cutting it out is the only way. but dinitrol is the best will slow it down some.
