Yes, this is a freshly built frame. I was sick for a week and it sat in the garage unprotected and has rust in some hard to get places. Sandblaster would get right to it, but I don't have one to use. Still sick, but am able to stand for 30 minutes at a time and have been sanding the frame at half-times and commercial breaks (I like college football). Was thinking there might be something that can be sprayed on the metal and flushed off with a solvent leaving a nicely prepped surface. Am I dreaming?
