Default Corrosion ?

Hi All,

Just wondering what everyone does on exposed sheetmetal to keep surface rust off while you're in the build ? I use LPS3 - but it has to be removed to paint or weld. I saw a product on PowerBlock this weekend that they use http://www.picklex20.com/ wondered if anyone has used it - or has used something else that's simular ?

Jim

Jim we just use a good expoxy on all bare metal to seal it. Then sand it off in the spots that need plastic fillers.

Kennys shop has plastic under the floor and it doesnt sweat in there at all. OS as long as we dont sweat on it it stays perfect. Hell my car has been in bare metal for years now .LOL

We never do only bare metal but that's just us.
