My 4720i is not barn kept so it gets some weathering. I have a couple of pretty good rusts spots now in some unique spots (one at the ROPS buckle, one on each side/middle of the canaopy) What is the best way to fix them?

On my tractor if any rust is on anything besides the hood or fenders I use a hand grinder with a wire brush wheel (either a disk or bell shaped). Be sure to wear eye protection. It does a good job of getting the rust off. . Then repaint with some paint close enough in color that you can live with. If the rust is on something like the hood or fenders then I guess you would have to have the correct paint code and then sand the rust off and repaint. I'm no paint expert but this works for me.
