Just read through your whole build. Really nice fabrication work and welding! Keep it up - I'm following with interest.

Thanks a lot. Its slow going.

So ive been slowly tipping away doing a few bits and pieces
Mostly stripping and cleaning the hubs with wire brushes in the drill which is a pain Another kit car builder dropped in last weekend and suggested electrolysis rust removal This is something i was hoarding stuff for but was too lazy to actually do so not long after that fella left i got cracking ![]() ![]() ![]() I gave a part 6 hours and it was quiet clean which made me happy |
So then i got impatient
![]() ![]() And started on another bigger one I also did a bit of filler work on the bonnet ![]() |
So i Gave the knuckle 24 hours in the bath
And i have to say i am delighted with the results compared to the effort and time it took with the drill and wire brush When i took it out of the bath it still had some flakey bits so i gave it a blast with the power hose to remove what was left Then i dried it and ran over it with the wire brush and gave it a coat of kurust Also the process removes all the grease and grime and crap ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
This is what it looked like before
![]() 2 on the go now ![]() |
Brilliant - welcome to the club - worked for me as well on loads of rusty bits for my build :)
|
Wow - I've been toiling away with a parts washer, pressure cleaner and wire brushes! That looks a lot easier.
|
