Bed rust cure?
Like usual the fenders on my 97 have started bubbling up and rusting. I was planning on gettin it fixed at the local bodyshop, or cutting it out and puttin on fender flares. But I have heard from a couple people that even if i have it repaired, it will keep rusting and wont last too long. Is this true? Is there any way to completely restore my bed to its original rust free condition for another five or ten years?

Have you ever seen water stick to oil?...
Dust won't cause as much rust as water ,or salt ..Hard to get oily metal to rust ,,if it gets dusty ,,oil it again,,
If its already rusty , oil will slow it down...
I rinse all the rust prone areas every time I wash a vehicle ..
oil will seep better than water ,less surface tension..
Basically, the day they build a vehicle ,is when it starts rusting,,
Where you live is the the deciding factor on how fast it rusts, along with how clean you keep it...
I have a 12 year old explorer ,,the only place it has rust (had) now gone ,,was where I couldn't oil it & couldn't wash it ,,behind the running board at the rear of the rockers..
From now on ,,I'll remove them once a year & clean & grease behind them ...
Plenty of dust in the doors ,,,no rust at all.....
