Inside the fender at the top is where the worst of mine was at, wish I could have sent them off for blasting and normally would have but the same guys who blasted my cab ($300) wanted $100 each to do the fenders. Crazy. So I had to do it here at home with a 3m paint/rust stripper wheel, screw driver and sand paper and patience! What I couldn't get to with those things I used a wire brush to loosen anything up and used the Fast Etch which converts the rust, then painted those areas with rust encapsulator... took some time but I believe they'll be good for years to come.
