I have rust on the inside of both of my door panels all along the bottom. Is there anyway I can fix this or at least prevent it from getting worse? I'd take it to a body shop but i really don't have the money right now. Thanks guys, heres pics:

alright so i started sanding down the rust, all is well, got down to bare metal, no holes in it, just surface rust. but here's my problem. the black moulding around the door, there rust beneath that too, can i take it off? if i take it off will it go back on? i don't want to fix the other rust and just let that rust take off.. thanks for your help in advance guys, much appreciated.

Try POR-15. This stuff is the best.

i think POR-15 is an undercoating, meant to prevent rust. applying it to an already rusty area isnt going to help at all
