Had a previous post about mouse urine smell. Now seeking help on how to control the aftermath of the corrosive urine left behind. I cannot reach all the rusty areas around the inside top of the car, or inside the door pillars where there were nests. The metal is solid with different degrees of rusted surface. Attempting to remove as much rusty material as possibly. Question is should I try to treat the areas with a rust encapsulator then paint or just use a paint that says it can be sprayed over rust.

You mentioned getting a soda blaster...why not do that first, then clean it up and then spray with rust encapsulator.

rust encapsulator will encapsulate the rust not stop it or prevent it. pics would help. i would be thinking maybe something like muratic acid, clean up, ospho, epoxy primer. maybe self etching primer.

My choice would be Ospho if you can reach the offended area. Larry

Evapo-rust where you can reach areas.
Last resort is a coating. I have had great results with SEM coatings.
