Rust!!!!
I was shocked today to find rust on my 75 . Its on the front passenger roof corner.
The rust "dot" is a few mm in diameter but the overall damage is about 10mm long. What can I do?

Looks like a stone chip. Scrape the rust to of the chip with a sharp implement, paint with some rust neutraliser , then using a colour matched touch up pen use the primer and top cora building up in small layers until level with the paint ,allow to harden for a week than cut back, apply lacquer, leave for a week then t cut and polish
