That's it.

Thanks Jake.

I can get one from my local Home Depot for $9. I think I'll order one to play with.

What about small areas where paint is chipped down to bare metal? Obviously, on your Corvettes, you don't have that issue.

What are you guys with survivor cars doing with something like that? Is it just "verboten" to apply touch up paint to small chips? Thinking you could clean it well, then judiciously apply one of the rust converters, then a small dab of touch up paint. Bad idea?

Hey Lynn, I have been dealing with this issue on a Survivor Trans Am and this is what I used. It's a gel, took about 4 days of re-dabbing then re-covering it with the plastic GLAD cling wrap. I will just touch it up from here...
