Yeah unfortunately if even the smallest spot of rust is left it will eventually re-appear. I gave my van a good doing up but 18 months later bubbles are appearing again. I used a flapper wheel first then painted on a rust converter followed by a zinc based paint but the dreaded stuff still survived. Interestingly the perforated areas I cutout and welded in with new metal are fine ........ . . . nuff said :wink:
