Its not always so easy. Some people just pull interior and start slapping your favorite sound deadener in. Thats not always the case
and there is alot to it really. THE PREP WORK. Thats what matters the most. If you have slight rust or heavy. it needs to be addressed.
if not, you only making it worse. Here I show you how to do this correctly. In steps. The way it should be done. You could have standing water
for months and not have to worry about anything. Surface rust will never come back period!!! The HARDEST part, is the prep.

When you get down to the rust, spray it with Rust Cutter and leave overnight. Wipe it away with wet rags and dry, You will have nice clean metal ready to primer.

Just for fun I pulled msds on por15 metal ready prep. Ospho,Kleen Strip,and Rust Cutter. They are all phosphoric acid. Which turns rust into iron phosphate. Again it's tge magic prep not the magic paint like POR wants you to believe.
