Stopping Rust

and wear some gloves!

WD-40 and other penetrating oils are easily absorbed into your skin !

I used to repaint commercial airplanes for a summer job in college, and there are a lot of really nasty chemicals out there that will wreak your liver or blood chemistry.

Gloves and face mask are cheap and should already be under your kitchen sink and on your work bench!

(I gave blood once, when a friend had to get a blood transfusion after absorbing too much MEK, while preparing his plane for new paint - very nasty stuff and horrible hangover, too!)

Well after 31 days soaking in Liquid Wrench i finally took it out and hit it with 0000 steal wool and find steel brush. I think it looks alittle better but far from over. comparing the before and after helps. I know im rubbish at this. First time doing it. Dont think i mucked it up to bad. Here are some pictures. The parts havent dried in these pictures, not sure if that will help.

WARNING: LIQUID WRENCH EATS LATEX GLOVES
