need advice on firewall paint damage :c

Hey mates, could really use your help. I spilled a load of dot3 down my firewall under the brake cylinder master. It made the paint discoloured and bubbly like. i scraped off most i could and resprayed it with killrust paint.

BUT i cant reach the lower bottom of the firewall let alone see it. its too cramp and far.what i did is just sprayed hardcore everywhere and over the damaged paint with killrust enamel spray paint after i flushed it with water and dishwasher.




will that be okay to to prevent rust? there is absolutely no bare metal showing and the damaged paint is adhered quite strongly on still. I cant reach under there to scrape the damaged paint off. theres a metal cover below aswell so i cant crawl under the car and do it. should i save for a couple of weeks and take it to the shop or is just covering it in killrust enamel spray paint okay? it dried and harden just fine.

thanks heaps guys sorry for the trouble :C
