cheap & easy rust removal

http://www.cookhaus.co.uk/vinegar/17.htm
Not sure if it's been on here before but good results.

The problem is the bit in between washing the vinegar off and painting it - it will rust again, in the gap! Bilt Hamber and others do similar products but its a phosphorous-based acid (or something like that) and it coats the steel with a protective film during the chemical process which removes rust, but is overpaintable. Or something like that.

Can't beat vinegar on price though!

shame u didnt post this last week when i sanded all my bits off ….

cracking post.

Well worth a post!!

Cheers

Is it worth asking mods to put this into how to section as can be handy for others to follow

well worth a go, just make sure u paint straight away and clear coat bare metal pieces

A friend of mine suggested I use brown sauce

with regards to the bilt hamber product ive got some of the deox gel and must say it does the trick...
