Rear Arch Rust Spots

[Quid]

Hi,

just a quick one, I have a very small rust patch on my rear arch, about 3cm by 1cm. Luckily it's only surface rust so I should be able to sand it back to metal. The question is spraying, can I just try to blend it in or is it a full rear quarter respray?

thanks

you can try to blend but its not easy, for a proper job a bodyshop should be able to blend it but it will be over pretty much the whole 1/4 panel more than likely

I would just spray the whole panel no silver is the same if mixed again from what I know? Or it's extremely difficult to match silver.

Ok looks like a trip to the local body shop for me.

it will be blended in you wont even notice it. No need for the whole rear quarter, far to big of a risk for a mismatch. any good body shop will do a good job and blow it in around the arch.

Oh and dont try ourself as youl need to sand it back to bare metal youl have to e-prime it, prime it, metallic basecoat which isint the easiest to spray to get the metallic to shine, and then clearcoat which isint easy to spary over metallic you dont just whip it on, you have to do light coats and build it up.
