Paint chip is rusting

Nitex

I did some initial research on Dr. Colorchip, and this looks like a great idea. I take it i still need to remove the rust first. The last reply suggest using a dremmel? The pic is deceiving, its a much smaller chip than it appears. Dremmeling out the chip seems a tad overkill?

I would wet sand the chip with some 2000 grit paper to clean out the rust. You need to use short strokes in one direction, constantly checking the area as you work. You don't want to over do it as it is easy to do with factory paint. Make sure that you use a sanding block. Once you get the rust removed, follow the 2000 grit with 2500 and then 3000 grit. This will ensure that no wet sanding marks remain behind. You will need to polish out the 3000 grit damage with a polish like the Adam's Fine Machine Polish on a white pad. After that, you can begin to work on the chip.
