Methods/materials/tools to use for cleaning rust before painting?
#14
I always finish off my surface perparation with Scotchbrite pads, rather than wet & dry, or sandpaper. They don't leave the same amount of residue on the surface and seem to smooth things better, especially old paint surfaces, without being too aggressive.


Agree on the Hammerite smooth - brilliant stuff - used it lots over the last 30 years of tinkering/restoring; nothing like the old rubbery/hammered finish of the original Hammerite paint.
