Internal door parts
Do you clean, sandblast, remove rust if you take any of the door guts out before you reinstall them?
I was going to run them thought the sandblaster, but was thinking that sand may cause more of a problem.

I don't blast them. I just clean them up by hand, lube all of the pivot points and channels and re-install them. Then again, I don't build show trucks, just drivers, so others may get more technical on them..... LockDoc

Re: Internal door parts
I’m doing the same thing and won’t blast them. That sand will get into the pivots, it’s so dusty.

Re: Internal door parts
I've been using a vinegar/water mixture to let them sit in for a bit, acts like a rust remover. Then I clean what that doesn't get by hand, and put a protective coating on and lube everything up. I made the mistake of blasting window regulator pieces once and it was more head ache then it was worth.

Re: Internal door parts
a little vinegar solution and a wire brush is all I will use.
Thanks
