Today when I was cleaning my MINI, I had the boot open and noticed very small rust specks just above the boot, in that little nook under the spoiler. Water must have leaked in there and stayed there. Now, my question is...these are just the size of pencil heads. Is it possible to use some sandpaper to get them off without having to repaint? Is there some sort of product I can use to treat this? I dont want this to escalate into a larger problem. Thanks in advance.
