Rust repair

[Max.G]

Hey everyone,
I have a few rust spots on my patrol and I am curious about using aluminium mesh and body filler. Does anyone know if this fix is a durable, rust preventive and effective fix for rust spots? The alternative is to cut the rust out and weld a new plate of steel on. After I do fix the rust using one of the two methods I am also wondering if my backyard will be a good enough spot to paint over the rust repair. I am planning on simply using spray cans (using the proper process). Getting this patrol to a shed or spray booth would prove very difficult as it isn’t road worthy so that’s why I am asking if my backyard is suitable to paint the few spots.

Cheers

As long as its not windy, raining or in full, hot sun, I cannot see why you can't do it outside...
