Hello everybody!

My Civic '94(4 door) LX got rust on the fourth quarter, a.k.a. rear fender.
Just above the rear wheel, where the bumper connects to the fender with a screw.

I am planning to repair it, by myself.
I'm gonna sand it furts to try to clean the rust as much as I can.
Then I'm gonna put Bondo(from Pep Boys). Sand it again.
And then pait it with spray paint.

BUT here's the problem.
My paint code on the door says: NH-538-3(which is white)
In Auto Zone they have about 10 different kinds of White spray paint?!?
- pure white
- artic white
- cloud white
- classic white
- light champagne
- real white
and many more ... ?!?

Does somebody know which one match the white stock color?
I cannot buy 10 different whites to see which one match my color?!?

Thanks in advance!

 

nh-538 is frost white same as my hatch

 

So I have to look for Frost White?
The paint brand in Auto Zone is called something like Dupli-Paint.
So I have to look for this name. Are you sure it matches the stock color?

 

Bondo over top of rust is just a temporary solution. If you don't totally contain the rust and remove it all it will come back and spread. I'd advise against just sanding it down and putting bondo over top.

 

I understand, but the previous owner hadrepaired it in some way(probably the same that you said)
and now the rust came back. I don't have profi tool and I know that the best way is to cut the entire piece of metal and have
welded it with new metal, but this is way big job. I cannot do it, and I don't have the money for the labor which will be about $500, if it's not more.

Yes, this is temporary solution, but that'sall I can do.

 

If its temporay then I would not bondo it. Pick up some por 15 to stop the rust then paint it. wont look good but will stop the rust.
