Need some help defeating rust
Saturday, October 09, 2010 7:04 PM
I fear that must take action quickly on the dirty bird, things are deteriorating quickly

I pulled off a bunch of bolts in the front bumper support that have some surface rust on them, im also pulling off a bunch of the brackets that have rust on them as well. I want to strip all of them of the rust and repaint them to the original color. Is there some type of liquid I have to buy to do this, or whats a good way to get rid of the rust, some of the bigger stuff obviously I can sand or run a dremel over but im not sure what to do with the bolts

I agree with the POR-15! Did miracles for me.

Or just sell your car to a VW guy lol. They like rusted sh!t.

to physically get RID of surface rust one merely needs to do this...

I shall try to remember that.

POR-15 is some amazing stuff. It does become dull if left unprotected and exposed to sunlight.
