Hi All,

I noticed a slight surface rust patch on my left front chassis rail and want to get it fixed quick smart.
Can anyone recommend a good quality and light on the wallet place?
I am near Logan

if it is just surface rust fix it yourself.

just need to sand it back prime it (maybe etch primer) and paint it black.

If there is no actual metal(rust) that is flaking off and no pinholes in the chassis, then just sand properly, paint it with a good cold galvanising paint (97% zinc or more), and when that is cured paint it with some chassis black.

How about if there is flaking? Ive got a bit of rust in the A pillar on my Feroza just around the aerial. Its going to need the professional touch I think.

Im in Brisbane as well, anybody got any recommendations?

Cheers
