Default Grinding rust off, what should I treat the metal with?

I got a little bit of rust forming on my rear quarter panel above the wheel well. It is not rusted through at all. I am going to grind it down to bare metal. What should I treat the metal with so rust won't come back?

Thanks in advance.

if you want effectiveness and not purty looks, POR15. Absolute best **** there is IMHO. Kinda expensive, but cheaper than fixing rust. If you have much of an indent, POR15 has a tube of body filler stuff, cant remember the name and not going to the garage, but it squeezes out like tooth paste and dries hard as steel. Works great.

Google POR15, see what ya find.

+1 for POR15. There's some Rustbullet **** advertised on here I'd never heard of but I have a can of POR15 behind me; excellent stuff.
