I have cleaned up and stripped the paint on my car to bare metal in some places but I am not done yet. It is already starting to rust. I need to put something on there that will come off easy when I am ready to weld and por15. Someone suggested motor oil. Any ideas?

I have used Ospho very successfully. You need to put it in a spray bottle, spray it on lightly, then give it a light rubbing with a scotch brite pad. This will convert any rust to iron oxide(?) and will protect the metal for about a month. If you do have some converted rust areas, you can always go back and grind/sand it down to bare metal, or just leave it. When you're ready to paint, spray it on again, rub it down, then wash it down with water, finally wiping/drying it clean. Immediately paint it as the metal will now be exposed to the elements. And definately use good primer. Good luck. |
