[C320-list] Interior Rust?

I've found a few spots with some minor rust.
(eg. the engine mounts)

I realize it's a losing battle with the elements, but I figured I'd try to
atleast slow it down.

Does anyone have some favorite recommendations for rust remediation?

My upbringing tells me to scrape clean with a wire brush, slap on some
naval jelly, wait a bit, wipe and clean it down, and then apply some
rustoleum paint.

But it seems in the marine environment there's often another approach.
(I think I've heard to only use brass wire brushes or bronze wool when
scraping.)

Please advise? The history of rust on the mailing list seemed mostly to do
with external rustiness.

Cheers,
