Hello all, I posted some pictures below of one of our cars (town and country van), with 2 rust specks. I never experienced rust in/on paint so I am not sure what to do about it so I've included pictures below maybe you guys can chime in on what should happen next.

It's rusting from the inside out.. What you see is only a small portion of the actual rust going on in the other side of the panel. Best bet is to take it to a body shop and have them repair it correctly. By the time it breaks the paint like that though it's usually far worse than most expect and probably not a cheap fix by any means.
 
LOL, that isn't what we usually refer to as rust "specks"! Jake, you really think both of those are inside-outers, rather than chips that rusted?

Lol, I couldn't come up with something else to call it "Rust chip" "Rust uglyness" "Some rust crap on the car"
 
well the top one has a hole clean through it. So that's a safe bet. the bottom one might be a chip but it's bubbling up at the surface on the metal so it's also a good chance to be just surface at this point in time. But I'm not a body shop (I just live in the rust belt LOL) so my advise still stands to get it checked out by a professional body shop. It's already past what any detailer could properly fix.
