Minor rust on Rally 1 Trim rings - how to remove?
Cleaning up the rings on the Rallys while the wheels are at the blaster.
They have minor rust spots in the 'barrell' area. Got most of it with some #0000 steel wool, but that was the lightest and least of the four. Thinking a mild acid like white vinegar or ospho? I know there was a mild tremor when GYC mentioned using Muriatic Acic (presumably, a weak concentration) to clean up some old chrome. Thoughts on same? Appreciate any insight! |

these modern water based rust removers are AMAZING;
Have you considered soaking that section? (you might have to get creative on the container, or how to submerge only the section you need soaked.

Got a name or brand to chase?
The sos pads and elbow grease did a pretty good job so far, but always looking for more ways to push back on tinworm |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
