Cleaing up some Rust.

[bobdole]

Hello Guys,

I have got some rust spots I would like to clean up on the undercarriage. I have done alittle research checking out best way to do it. I have found this stuff called Rust Bullet. Just wondering if any of you guys have every used this stuff or if you can recommand something. The rust is mostly surface rust.

Thanks
Charles

I normally just take out my wire brush on my drill. Spray some WD40, wire brush it, some more WB40, wire brush, then a cloth to clean up the area and let dry. They I use a rust converter to make sure it doesn't come back. After that, I spray the color I want and call it a day.

cut it out, weld new in. Or wire brush it and use POR15

You are going to cut out metal for surface rust?

I think the part in bold was the surface rust remedy.

Bob, I seemed to remember when I did my car with POR-15 there were comparison reviews of various products back to back. Here is one: POR-15, Rust Bullet and Eastwood

Bob can't stand seeing newbie by your name anymore /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

For you newbies that don't know he was an old guy when I was a newbie so I changed it. I actually think he was on the old Yahoo list I read up on before I bought mine in 2000.

Old Yahoo list still exists. Click me if you want to waste a few hours reading ancient hieroglyphics /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif Starion intercoolers were the big mod back then /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif I even saw Josh Jones' name pop up. Still haven't seen the picture of him with big boobs /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Curtis thank you. It is fun seeing old user names that I remember. I am doing a build up on the new VR4. But keeping it mostly stock. Just wheels, brakes and Suspension upgrades. I have my Evo for performance driving.
