The top left corner of my hatch has a tiny bit of rust starting. What can I do to prevent any serious damage.

Thanks

Does your hatch have a chip in the paint that started your rust problem. You will need to sand area and remove as much rust as possible. Apply some navel jelly to area and let sit for 15 min. Wash clean and dry area. Apply primer and wait till dry and wet sand lightly. Clean area and dry, than apply paint. Before second coat has dry all the way apply one coat of clear. Take care of this before it gets away from you. Good luck
