Treating window sills ?


Ive just removed the windscreensfrom my splitty bit of surface rust but not too bad. What would be the best way to paint this up before replacing the windscreens and also isnt there meant to be a drain hole in there somewhere?

Building funds for a bare metal resto but I've sanded most of the rust off and used rust converter on a few spots where it is a bit deeper now I want to seal and paint it and stick the screens back in so I can drive it for a couple of years until it all gets done properly.

you can do the small area or concern bare metal, all it takes is a bit more time on the sander, and or more paint remover, my advice is any spot you want to deal with take it all the way back and make it shine, probably 30% more time now and no hassles later and its not a cost issue if you take the time to sand it back
