Rust Removal

[Holaday07 4.7]

The grinder will be just fine just keep at it. Mineral spirits or acetone is fine for wiping them down before priming. Take your time and be patient is the best advice I can give you. Use a good primer and a few good coats of it as well.

Thanks man, much appreciated.

Wire wheels will wear you out with the amount of force needed to press on it. It will also not take every little bit off. The Steel wool pads on a grinder will make it shine like a mirror the moment you touch down on it.

Once it's mirror shiny, use the mineral spirits and a lint free rag to wipe it clean just before you prime it. Once the primer has set well start coating it with the rubber coat or paint of your choice.
