Help with rust

dwalsh1 · Jul 4, 2015

Hi to all
Picked up an 06 Freelander sport 2 weeks ago and noticed a few nasty looking paint bubbles on both the passenger wheel arches while giving it some TLC. I'm not a great lover of rust so what would be the best approach for this? A rub down with some fine paper and a spray job out of a can perhaps. Your guidance please and thanks in advance..............dennis

I would agree that there has been a repair there as they dont normally go at that spot. Not to worry, I would do as you say and rub down treat and paint. Make sure to look behind the liner and get some wax in there too

+1 definitely have a look at the other side.

Interesting you should say that jedi as the man from DEKTRA who looked at the car before buying mentioned that the tailgate door had a respray to a very good standard. Thanks for the replies chaps I'll look for a spray tin of Artic Frost as I feel a touch up pen may take a lifetime

Touch up pen ordered.
