Re: prepping parts for paint

Rattlecan "aluminum" rust-control from True Value - couldn't find any moresimilar dull silver; no clear-coat. Three years & counting, still very presentable.

Rallies were truly awfull (junk yard dogs) when I started. Rotary wire brush on an electric drill, then green scuff pad, cleaned with thinner, sprayed under the shadetree, with good luck (no birds). Gotta look pretty close to see any of the old rust-pits.

Hey, it's a driver, not a show-rig.
