Hi Matt!

I see Andy Blance has revised the Mega Brochure once again (May Day edition, 2016 http://www.sjscycles.com/thornpdf/THORN_MEGA_BROCHURE.pdf ). Page 7 carries the following note from 2014, of relevance to your query:
Quote
Avoid letting a scratch turn rusty. You should apply some lead oxide paint to any scratches as soon as possible - certainly before rusting occurs. You can touch them in with suitable paint, or apply a patch, when it’s convenient.

If you let a scratch go rusty, you’ll need to remove the rust with fine wet and dry paper, before applying the lead oxide primer. The process of sanding is almost certain to increase the size of the area which needs to be touched in.

Andy Blance Summer 2014

Best,

Dan.
