Default Found a small patch of body rust

Hey guys, i just found a small patch of rust on my inner fender on the rear. It hasnt spread and gotten big at all, and you cant even see it yet. Its about the size of a pencil eraser. I was wondering before i touched it up what would be the best way to treat it before it starts to spread any bigger. Thanks for the help.

Mask it off, sand blast it, then touch it up.

Or, cut it out and weld in a new piece.

sand it off. if its not to bad then 320 grit should work, then prime, paint, whatever u wanna do to it. but u have to put something on there to seal it up if not it will keep rusting
