Alright, I appreciate that. I removed the bed from the chassis yesterday, and the bed is pretty much a total loss. The front bed panel is unsaveable, and the bed side panels seem to have lost strength but I couldn't find any rust on them. Might go ahead and replace them anyway. I did start to sand down the surface rust on the chassis and gave it a protection coating.

So, I take it this acid rust treatment is only for parts that can be dipped, correct?
