Can Grease Be Applied to Rusty Car Side Skirts?

[CassidyMarie]

Applying grease to rusty car side skirts is not recommended. Here are solutions for dealing with rust on car side skirts: 1. If the rust is not severe, you can first use very fine water sandpaper dipped in water to gently sand away the rust spots. After completely cleaning the area, apply a layer of primer to ensure the rust does not spread or worsen. 2. For new scratches, clean the area and directly apply primer. Most vehicles come with a small can of original paint. Applying primer helps prevent rust and enhances the adhesion of the topcoat. 3. You can purchase a touch-up paint pen in advance. After the applied primer dries, sand it smooth with water sandpaper, then use the touch-up paint pen for color matching. This method is suitable for small scratches or inconspicuous areas. 5. Toothpaste can also be used. For minor new scratches, simply apply a little toothpaste. After rain or washing the car, remember to reapply it to provide a simple barrier. While this works temporarily, a professional paint repair is ultimately needed for a permanent solution.
