[DeTomaso] Rust - does it go away?

[Ken Green]

I've heard people talk about rust like cancer and that you have to cut out 100% of it or it will spread if you just seal it in.  I think that is not accurate because rust is formed by a chemical reaction between oxygen and iron in the presence of moisture.  If you seal the area and no oxygen or moisture can get to it, there cannot be additional rust formed.

In general:  if you have a rusted piece of metal, and you take it from the wet area, does the rust continue to form and eat away the good metal?
Same question, but a piece of wood?
Same question, but Black Mold in your home?
