Re: Stripping Paint From Cab - Need Surface Rust Tips
Thank you everyone for the continued input and comments.
I used the stripper discs to get the cab pretty bare. Followed with an 80 grit sanding pad to remove any surface rust I didnt want to "dig at" with the stripper disc.
My next focus area is removing the light surface rust that didn't come off with the previous methods. I have a fair amount on the roof and back panel of the cab. Today I tested Eastwoods Metal Prep on a patch of the roof to see how much of this rust it would dissolve. Overall it looks pretty goodbut I have some questions about the minor rust that is in the tiny pits.
Here are the before and after of the test area:
Top pic: overall roof, as good as it was going to get without getting to aggressive with stripper disc
Middle Pic: test area with 30 minutes of metal prep and scotch bright
bottom pic: tape line of treated and untreated areas
