Default Round window screen rust.

Hello,


So i am getting round to doing something on the cossie

I have rust round the screen and been cleaning to bare metal and have gone thick! What do i do now?

I was going to paint it in "hammerite kurust"
Then filler it all and smooth back and just leave it till the whole car gets painted (or wrapped as thats alot cheaper )
Then refit the screen once all painted (wrapped )

I dont have any new pictures of it only old ones that dont help but ive been all round where the screen sits and it was not to bad all round but was going to give it all a coat anyway.

Here it is, i used it before but cant remember what for?

only way to fix it properly is get the rot cut out and replaced with good metal.
