rust problems

i have a few rust spots on my truck and they arent big, just annoying looking. i thought about sanding the paint down until all the rust is gone and putting painting on some primer until i can get it painted. ive posted on here bout this problem before but i never got to read teh replies. thanks david

That's definately a plan. I'm still doing the bodywork on my 89. What's not done by mid November will get sanded and primed. The only problem with primer is that it holds moisture, and will have to come off to do the job right. Otherwise you'll ruin the new paint job. Good luck.

it is true that primer is not waterproof but a filler primer is so if you sand and prime use the filler primer so you dont have to remove it when you paint.
