My eagle has some unfortunate rust. It's not my fault I purchased her this way. It's just little pinpricks of rust on the hood right behind the headlights and one large cancer spot on the driverside door. I work for minimum wage and I was wondering if there was a quick easy fix so that it doesn't spread. I honestly have not much in the way of body work experience and I would like to keep the color at least relatively uniform. (It's a light tan) If there is some sort of clear solution that I could put on it, that would be the best but if I have to just hit it with primer I can do that too. I just don't know what to use or what to do.
Nothing really quick and easy. You should first determine how bad the rust is? Can you sand it down and see that the sheet metal is not compromised, that is where you need to start. If a door skin is rotten you may just want to opt for a replacement door.
I'm pretty sure that it's just a bit of surface rust. But if anyone knows of a place where I can get cheap replacement parts I would be very, very happy.
