1975 914 - one thing leads to another!

While working on brakes, I found rust in the recessed area of the driver's floor pan where the pedal braket is bolted down. Apparently moisture has gathered or sat in this low area of the floor pan.

I'm going to use a small metal brush to remove as much rust as possible. I'd appreciate advice on any products I could use to remove the remaining rust, and products I could use to coat the area to prevent further oxidation at this location.

Thanks,
Robbie

Epoxy primer after removing all traces of rust. You can't beat epoxy primer for sealing metal. Followed by a good top coat for protecting the primer. I have been a user of por15 and don't like the shelf life or the problems trying to get another coat of undercoat or paint to adhear to it. The only success I've had with a well adheared top coat over por15 was by also using the tie coat primer that is recommended over por15. That increases the cost considerably.
