Default wheel arch rust

the hate.. i got some starting on mine,
just on the very inside edges of 2 wheel arches.
where the metal of the arch meets the arch liners

what is the best way of sorting it?
i dont want it spreading.

think i'll get some treatment paint., ive just put some normal paint/hammerite on it for now.
but can sand that back whenever and treat it.

its not visable if you look at the car.
its actaully in the wheel arch if you see what i mean.
and a little bit where the side skirt meets the arch.

cheers mate.
