Im thinkin about attempting this while i have mine out of the car rebuilding rearend. Get most rust out and going to do it luillo's way, but use the rust converter. Where did yall get the rust stuff at ?


eastwood.com

But if you get all the rust out, the rust converter will not work. It will be all a ball of gum and it will not dry ever. I called and they told me to clean it and just use the encapsulator. If you have rust that can not be take out then us a light coat on the rust only.
