You need a body shop, not a message board. If your car has been painted in the affected area, you are screwed when it comes to warranty. If it was wrecked, go to the shop that repaired it.

BTW, 91 views is not the same as 91 posts.

from what i heard, rust spots are metal specs that landed on the paint in the factory when it was wet, and that you can take them out with a clay bar
