Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Jun 2023 Posts: 143 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2023 Posts: 143 | I would like some advice on a product for rust penetration. Ospho is really thin product seems like it would be excellent for for rust. Just pulled down my fenders and hood from the shelving in my shop, they have been sitting for over 10years. The entire truck was dipped and primed before storage. After cleaning with some soap and water I noticed rust coming from the cracks and crevices on the fenders. I would like to apply the Ospho and perhaps with a little air pressure to help penetrate these areas. What do you think. Thanks Red

I don't really need to sandblast the big wide open portions of the panels. I need to get everything out of those nooks and crannies.
Ospho is a great product, but not for this problem. The chemical reaction which the Ospho produces, leaves a chalky byproduct which would be difficult to remove from your nooks and crannies and could come back to haunt whatever primer and paint you put over it.
