I checked out the FAQ section and it offered lots of good tips on rust prevention. I need advice on rust repair. There's a spot on the inside of my car's front passenger side door. I sanded the rust spot as best I could and now it's started emerging out the other side, thus becoming visible to the outside world.

My question: What can I do at this stage? It's minor right now, but I know rust can spread like a weed if ignored. How can I prevent this spot from getting worse? Can the paint/metal corrosion be repaired? Would a body shop even give me the time of day on this one? Any advice, as always, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
