Subject:      Rust removal and touch-up painting
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I'm new to the list having just purchased an '87 Westy that needs a few
surface rust spots attended to.  I plan to sandblast the spots to bare metal
and to paint them over with some POR 15 rust treatment.  I then plant to
apply some body filler to smooth out the spots, prime and repaint with some
matching spray can paint that I bought.  The rest of the paint is reasonably
good and I don't want to spend a fortune on the body.  Is this a reasonable
approach or does anyone have any better ideas?  Any help would be
appreciated.
