You didn't cut out the old metal and weld in a new piece.

You only did the outside. Serious rust usually starts on the inside of a
panel where the paint is poor or non existent. Removing it on the outside
only is a very short term 'fix'.

Annoying isn't it! If it is just surface rust I'm afraid you'll have to send
some money buying/hiring a 'small area' air compressor gritblast gun, it's
the only way of geting into the depressions properly. Found this out the
hard way many times, I bought the gun unit so that I can be sure of it's
condition and I hire the compressor when required.
