Well as you can see this frame was in a proper rusty state. Luckily it was all surface rust and the metal beneath was in tip top condition after several hours of rubbing down.  The paint was stripped using green nitromors. And the frame was prepped using a wire strip and clean wheel and several grades of rubbing down paper. You maybe able to notice this is the super rare early 85 master that doesnt have the grip area on the rear frame standers. This is only found on the march and early April models.  :)

Here are some pics to amuse you.
