Rusty patches down the bare metal ..next step. Help please.

There was some patches of rust on my golf's roof which are now down to bare metal. untill i get it sprayed what shall i do. I have some grey primer and some red oxide spray. Which is better to spray over the bare metal or are they both the same pruducts really?. Some tiny holes did appear but they will be filled over in time. Just want to stop the bare metal rusting up again. Some advice would be wikid atm since im hoping to do the job tomoz night.

cheers jack.

hi mate i would use the red oxide but it would be better if u got some (etch primer) to do the job

orite is there alot of difference between the two??

not to sure think the red oxide is cheaper but the etch sticks better with beter protection but either should do the job just herd etch is better for bare metal that wat ill be using will be doing full shell as bare metal

ther is somthing els called POR15 rust prevention paint sold by "frosts" on left hand of screen on advertising the is a guy on this forum that swears by it so thats propably very good

Thanks for your help.

kurust , hammerite stuff , ive been putting it on everything  8O (metal)

spray with primer then some colour,

if you use just primer the rust will just reappear,

primer is like a sponge and water will be absorbed

not alot off people know that, but a tip woth remembering

Would it be ok to just leave the primer on untill i fill over the holes? the car is stored in my garage and not on the road atall yet??

Red oxide first mate, then stick your primer on top if you want. Red oxide will stop/help prevent rust

moisture in the air upto you but whats a tin of spray paint cost compared to redoing the the panel
