What would you estimate would be the cost to repair a rust bubble about the size of a 1 dollar coin that is smack bang in the middle of my car roof. I'm not looking for a repair that looks perfect and a full roof respray, I just want the most basic "Stop the rust and prevent me failing WOF in the future" repair.

I'm asking here as I am flying down for uni on monday and am split between repairing it myself tomorrow by sanding it down, using rust converter, then priming and respraying or having it done professionally by a panel beater on monday (and having someone else pick the car up when it's finished). Naturally all the panel places are closed sunday so I have no chance of getting a quote tomorrow.

Hi there, this information can only be given from a panel beater, you may even need to show them a photo, if not the whole car.
