Epoch - What next for the rust?
« on: May 09, 2012, 06:00 PM »
Gents,

I have polished this, even used a brass buffer off the Dremel. It may look $**T but its as good as I can get it....

Have some oxalic on order, my plan is to maybe have it sprayed white - same colour as my build....

Any suggestions.............. just not sure when to stop with rust. (Note - Not had it bead blasted, can do if it wont wreck it)

Me thinks they are not NOS (New Old Stock) but brand new ones as i think they've never really stopped making them  ???
