Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 1,028 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 1,028 | I have just tried a rust remover that I think works pretty good. It is called "a must for rust". It smells like the "rust iradicator" that we used to remove rust stains from clothes when I worked in a drycleaner as a kid. It has an acid smell. I don't know which.
Anyway you spray this stuff on let it set, wire brush it and wipe off. If the rust is thin you see new clean metal. Where the rust is very thick the metal is now smooth and black.
Has anyone ever used a product like this? I just want to be sure if I prime and paint my frame the paint wont be blowing off down the road when I take my first drive.

There are many metal prep products that contain phosphoric acid. I used one recently when I painted the upper cab on my '65. It doesn't list any ingredients? -David | | | | | Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 148 Member | | Member Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 148 | the active ingredient is phosphoric acid
i have a bottle of the stuff too. it is good for light surace rust, but that is about it.

I guess it has it's appropriate application in some places, but I would be careful. I think coke or pepsi would most likely taste better... | | |
