This is a fairly common occurance on many old schoolers.<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v402/darylchan/problem.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Here's the hardware all lined up ready to face the firing squad... I mean the dremel with wirebrush attachment<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v402/darylchan/before.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />It's marvellous what milo... i mean the dremel with wirebrush attachment can do for you. It removes all the rust leaving the bare metal, without scratching the finish of the tool. Unfortunately, it can't remove the corrosion left behind by the rust.<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v402/darylchan/5050.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />All the before and after shots of the tools, painstakingly cleaned one by one.Spark plug tool<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v402/darylchan/sparkplugtool.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Spanner<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v402/darylchan/12mm.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Pliers<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v402/darylchan/pliers.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />After all is said and done... much better than before. Getting rid of that corrosion and restoring them to a showroom finish will be another story altogether.<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v402/darylchan/after.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
