would you guys say its alrite to start off by wire brush off the surface rust/flaking paint, then prime the area, and then paint it. What paint should i use, preferably black, cheap and something i can brush on? After that, ill then use the aerosole waxoyl.

After brushing off the flakey rust you should treat the area with rust killer. Not that Its a permanent fix, then prime and paint over. Once sills start to rust there is no stopping them though i'm affraid....

You want one of them gloopy gel things you paint on, follow the instructions. Jenolite or such.
