Default Help with paint rust spots?

Hey guys, I just bought a 1998 white 2 door cherokee. It is in pretty good condition except there are little rust spots in the paint.

How can I get rid of these?

I know that I must sand it down with super fine sand paper. Then apply some stuff (POR15 maybe?).

Could someone point me in the right direction here?


Thanks

Any chance of pics?

Where on the vehicle are these rust spots? Is it a paint chip thats rusting or is the paint lifting/bubbling and rust appearing?

But I'm pretty sure they're just like chips, not bubbling.
