Ahhh Rust!!!

[CrimsonBrian]

Hey everyone,
I was washing my car this morning and I found on the lower corner of the passenger door about an inch by inch spot of bubbly paint and rust. I am really concerned about this spreading further. Is there something I should do to stop it from progressing? Should I take it to a body shop? Thanks!

Sounds like the typical lower door trim stuff.

Did that last weekend as part of my mtech skirts install. Luckily, no rust under the trims because Fritz is a southern car

take it to a body shop if you don´t know what to do with it. They´ll hit it with an angle grinder and afterwards sandblast the spot, degrease it and fill it, smoothen it with paste, groundcoat it and spray it back to new. That´s basicly it , if you know the routine.Shouldn´t be more than three hours work for a pro.

OK, thanks so much for the suggestion. I think I'll probably end up taking it to a body shop since that is way beyond my level of expertise. Thanks so much!
