Hey, my exterior body is fine and great. However it appears there may be some rust going on between the rear fenders and the body. (As evidenced by couple of bubbles on the door jam with the striker plate). Not super serious but I’m trying to slow any progression as best I can. Does the black tarry stuff need to come off? I’m sure I can get some of it off, but not all especially in the crevices. Thinking if I hit it with a good rust inhibitor it won’t hurt. (After I do the best prep I can do in SITU). Probably best to remove as much of the black goo as I can.
It’s a Dallas/Arizona car so no salt. But it appears to have something going on here.
Your thoughts are appreciated. Is there a commercial black goo I could use to fill in after the rust inhibitor is used? Or is this a no no?
I guess it was answered above, get it down to bare metal as best you can:

Try a knotted wire wheel to remove chip guard( be careful they are dangerous don’t catch an edge) or a little pneumatic chisel, sandblasting would take forever.
