Rust repair

I found the typical rust above my doors. I am thinking about grinding it out with my Dremel and filling it with JB Weld. Probably not the best solution but I like it better than Bondo. Any thoughts?

I don't know how bad your stuff is, but if the gutter is bad enough having someone do a little welding would be nice for the long haul. You might want to look into Bondo Plastic Metal as well.

It is rusted through. I think welding would be better, but I don't know anyone with a MIG.
