Default Rust... Cheapest way to fix in 93 civic

My 93 honda civic coupe has rust in just the rear panels and am wanting to fix by either just painting or replacing panel. Any suggestions to the best way to get rid of the rust. the rest of the car is in good shape?

The best way to get rid or it would be to replace the panel. You can paint over it all you want, but it'll keep coming back.

Think of it like a tooth cavity. You could cover it over with whatever you want, if you dont get rid of the decay; it will keep eating away at your tooth enamel.

Take it to maaco or something and have them price it out for you. They stink and it might be buched when they're done, but the rust will be gone. lol.
