self rust removal

so today i decided to be productive and get rid of some of the rust on my car. i went to autozone and got some 40 grit sand paper, paint, and primer. Well they didnt have the right color so i got a toyota green that was the closet i could find and a dark grey primer.

got home got the drill out attached the wheel and sand paper and went to work.

here are some pictures before

this part was actually really bad im probably gonna need a new fender




in my drivers side door i found out that my car actually was in an accident that was never reported because this rust started where someone drilled holes to use a slide hammer (they also didnt use the right color lol)


and then this giant dent


and the after...i actually couldnt use the paint cus it was too cold so right now i have dark grey spots all over but at least it will stop the rust









i have no experience what so ever in this area so if you have any suggestions i will gladly take them because i will probably try to do some more little fixes on it as well. ill pay someone to paint the whole thing
