HELP: Repainting inside rear fender after tire rubbing?

deanmc · 04-02-2010, 01:33 PM

Anybody know if it's necessary to repaint the inside of the fenders where the paint has been rubbed off by my tires? I had spacers on the rear, and it caused rubbing on the rearmost portion of my fender where it meets the bumper.

Do I need to repaint to prevent corrosion and rust? And how would I go about doing that? Primer and spray paint?

Yah...since it's cant be seen, any paint to just seal it up from possible water penetration which can cause more paint damage to visible areas.
