You can treat it with special rust inhibitor but you would need loads on that area plus its not so critical. I would just grind it and paint as Mark says.

Holla :wave:

Engine is out at the moment and i've spotted what I believe to only be surface rust on the battery tray.

Buttttt I don't know how to treat it, what methods to use, can anyone give me some steps or point me in the right direction? What will I need etc?



Thanks for reading.
