Rust!!

OK I have two really small spots right above my driver wheel well that is rust. In total the 2 spots are about the size of....I dunno, this "O". Anyways what can I do to cover it up and make sure it doesn't rust further?

So they are above the top of the wheel? That is going to be realy tough to get rid of for a long time. It usualy comes back.

There is a product that is like a pen and has a thin fiberglass tip that will "sand" out the rust. Then maybe put some of that stuff that turns rust to black primer and then put on some touch up paint.

How many miles, what year, and do you drive it in winter?

most of the stuff described above can be found at wal-mart, even the touch up paint ( the "nail polish" one or little spray can) and since is red, I don't think you'd a problem.

Rust will come back unless you get rid of it completely try some rust eater (spray like wd40) and clean it out good then touch it up

It's a 95 with about 80K on the clock....I do drive it sometimes in the winter but not all that much. However, it's not garaged with a car cover.
