Best Rust-Proofing? 850 1995

Lucky you !!! My almost 10 years (2 more weeks) 850 started to have rust in the passenger side fender, right above the rocker panel, next the the front edge of the passenger side door. I am going to remove the bubbled paint & rust and then treat the area with POR15 and touch up paint. The other area which starts to develop rust is the passenger side tailgate hinge opening. The opening of which the tailgate arm goes through when opening/closing the tailgate. I also removed the rust and bubbled paint there. Then applied a thin layer of POR15 and double layers of touchup paint.

I will keep an eye on these 2 area and the whole car too ....
