I'm just very interested to READ if any of the top resto shops would use RUST VETO (claims to be clear, NOT Yellow)
on Shot Blasted Leaf Springs, Tie Rod Ends, Spindles, Sway Bars etc.....

How might it compare to RPM.......Rust Prevention Magic ????

This does look interesting. emailed the folks at Rust Prevention Magic. will see what they have to say

Hi,

Saw your product. I have been looking for a rust preventive. I have two questions of sort.

Can this be used on items like black oxide or zinc coated parts.

Also is this safe to be applied on automotive paints.

Darrel,

Does your car have the original radiator cap? If so, can you post a pic of it?

Thanks,

Tim

Thanks for the tips Bryan!

Thanks for the warm water and oxy-clean tip!

For those that have not tried it yet, it works really well. We had a rain day here on Saturday - so I spent it in the garage going over the black vinyl top and interior in the Chevelle. Like you mentioned, I thought it was pretty clean until you see what's on the white towel and in the bucket after you are done.

Those are specific to the supplier/manufacturer (not GM final vehicle assembly) so that makes perfect sense.

There would be several days (or weeks or months - depending on production volume or delays) between when the parts were made and when they were finally installed in a car.

Would you be willing to come over and clean up my Dad's GTO?

Darrell,

My low mileage 69 Chevelle convertible had the same heavy paper under the drivers side sill plate when I bought it 13+ years ago. I believe it is the remnant of the carpet protection paper that the factory installed for shipment to the dealer. During dealer prep, rather than remove the sill plate and the entire piece of paper, the technician would just rip the exposed paper away, using the edge of the sill plate as a 'cutting edge', and so the unexposed portion remained under the sill plate. That's my theory and I'm stickin' to it [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Continuing to make excellent progress.

By way of review: the exterior paint is Laquer?

Any checking/spiderwebbing?
