Re: When rust is found...

[Richard Beels <beels@technologist.com>]

Just go get some phosphoric acid-based anti-rust stuff at the hardware/car
parts store.  Extend, 3m rust pen, etc...  Dab it on when the car is warmed
up a bit.  Let it cure for 24 hours.  Hit it with some wax or epoxy-based
paint (great idea!).  Deal with it in the spring. 

Or just ignore it.  Rust doesn't really grow in the cold.
