Reconditioning...

[jps]

I've had a quick search on here for general advice, but haven't turned up anything quickly...

I'm new to car building and rennovation. It looks like i'm going to be grabbing a fair few bits from my donor Sierra, then reusing them after they've been cleaned up.

Is there any general advice around cleaning and repainting the many and varied bits and pieces I am going to salvage?

I am particularly thinking of painting the engine block and gearbox casing, hubs / uprights and brake callipers. Is it just a case of wire brush to get the loose rust off and then slap on some Hammerite, or is there more to it than that..?
