Surface rust question?
 
Rust question from a newbie with bodywork. I have always had late model mustangs so no surface rust on them. I am doing a 69 Nova with surface rust inside the car on the roof and some rust on the metal panels inside, but it's just surface rust. My question is do I strip it down to bare metal or put a rust type inhibitor on the rust or what? Not sure how much work to do to it trying to get it off? Media blast it maybe? This isnt a full on show car either. Street/drag car.

Rust adds character, just leave it and paint right over it :smiley_smack:

If its just surface, use a wire wheel and clean it all off real well
