Paint Qs

My wiper arms are rusting and i have a few spots on the car with rust.

Now... I know bdy will tell me the "right" way to do this... but i'm looking for the "good enough" way.

1)For the wiper arms: Sand the rust off. Primer. Paint. ??

Also, how do i get the wiper fluid tubes off, so i can remove the arms?

2)The body panels that have some rust.. One is the inside edge of the driver's rear tire well. The paint chipped right off due to underlying rust. Another spot where the paint is cracked, and you can feel rust under it, but it hasn't broken through, and the inner seam of the door (between the front 1/4 panel and the door) is rusted.

For the body panels, I was going to use the POR-15 system. I need to sand first, but then just por 15 and paint? Or is there steps in between like primer/adhesion promoter?

I don't have the money to have it professionally done, nor do i care if the paint doesn't match perfectly. I'll assume I'm going to be in another accident eventually... I'll let them paint the car then.


....also... por-15 or rust bullet? Both seem to be the same, but por-15 requires prep, rust bullet doesn't.
