iVe recently bought a t25 with a few scabs in the normal places and thought i might do a temporary tidy up use it for the summer and then get a profesional job done in winter .so whats the best way of treating rust before paint obviously removing as much as possible first ??

If your getting it done proper in the winter I'd just leave it be. Little rust scabs turn into big holes when you pick at them
If you feel you have to do something, maybe just spray with a rust converter like vacant, dinotrol ect

I used this stuff, holds up quite well. Better than vactan in my opinion
